Feed in tariff configuration

[Former Member]

Dear All,

We are a Utilities Industry, and provide electricity to our customer and so our ISU-billing and invoicing was devised as such.

Now, we have a new requirement where a feed-in tariff is required, that is our customers can provide electricity to our grid. We need to 'bill' them with a credit amount.

Can you please advise how to implement this.

Thanks & Regards

Hi,

By implementing feed-in tariff you don`t need special development.

In the standard case you have in the installation 2 devices:

Device A - metering consumption

Device B - metering feed-in

For these devices you need to implement two different register rates which will be calculated metered consumption (for both directions):

Rate A - register rate - metered consumption

Rate B - register rate - metered feed-in consumption

In the Rate C for consumption balancing (of both directions) you can calculate difference between "+" and "-" consumption, depends on the customer requirement. That`s all.

This is short introduction.

Best regards

Hello,

the simplest way is it, to use two contracts for the billing of the meter. One for the electricity supply and one for the electricity feed.

The advantage is that your rate will be unchanged and you must dont calculat the different between the both meters. The billing will be more transparent. One more advantage ist, that you can use a second settlement class.

In the rate for the electricity feed you can use for the most progamms in this rate the function "reverse sign" (V = X). A positive amount is then a negative amount.

Example:

Quanti01 without "reverse sign (V = )" 100 * 10 cents = 10 EURO

Quanti01 with "reverse srigns (V = X)" 100 * 10 cents = -10 EUR

Dear All,

Thanks for the reply. Can you please be more specific where do I define the rate. Is it in transaction EA32. What do I need to set to get the negative value for the feed-in value.

Thanks and Regards

Hello,

i hope i can help you. My english is not good, but i will do my very best. When you have a more questions, you can ask me or read http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp60_sp/helpdata/en/c6/4dce68eafc11d18a030000e829fbbd/frameset.htm (contract billing).

The Transaktion EA32 is view the rate, EA31 change the rate, EA30 is create a new rate.

When you create a new rate, you need for all steps a variant program from SAP. The standard have much programs for your rate. For many variant programs you can use the field "V". The Field "V (V = X (Flag is activate))" makes from a positive value a negative value or from a negative value a positive value. In the standard is the field not activate. When you want the revers, activate this. This is the simple way.

Example:

Quanti01 without "reverse sign (V = (Flag is not activate))" 100 * 10 cents = 10 EURO

or

Quanti01 with "reverse sign (V = X (Flag is activate))" 100 * -10 cents = -10 EUR

I hope i have answered your question.

Kind Regards

Hello,

sorry my english was wrong. The Name of the Field is in english "S " "Reverse +/- sign". In german is the name of the field"V".

new Example:

Quanti01 without "reverse sign (S = (Flag is not activate))" 100 * 10 cents = 10 EURO

or

Quanti01 with "reverse sign (S = X (Flag is activate))" 100 * -10 cents = -10 EUR

Thanks Marc.

Dear All,

Any idea where to indicate in the invoicing configuration which GL is affected, I need a separate GL for the feed-in tariff.

Thanks and regards
