High bill analysis

Hi,

We are implementing an enhancement to analyze customer's bill, if the current month's bill is very high compared to previous month's bill then we have to look into some of the reasons proposed:

  • Consumption History
  • Meter Over Estimated
  • Correcting a Previous Read
  • Wrong Move In Read
  • Wrong Move Out Read
  • Rate Changes

I would like to get some help from you to retrieve the data for each reason, are there any standard BAPI/FM to get the data or do I need to look in the tables like EABL, EABLG .

Appreciate your help!

Use the standard validations processes to set tolerances on meter reading entry. High values will be marked implausible, & require management before release to billing.

SPRO>SAP Utilities>Device Management>Meter Reading>Validations

Alternatively you could review package EE17 & see how the standard functions hang together.

Enhancements in the EDM* space would then be the point of reference for custom logic you may need.

specifically EDMLELSV, or EDMLELDE.

Hi,

How do you intend to integrate the checks - as custom outsorting FM during billing (similar to ISU_VAL_AMOUNT1)? If so, you'll have billing "object" of type ISU2A_BILLING_DATA passed by the system. That includes at least some readings that were billed. However, the appropriate place to implement reading validations... is reading, not billing.

cheers
