Hi,

Here a scenario on client requirement for net metering (Solar energy)

Scenario is

Customer generate in-house (called onsite generation) for self consumption by using of solar machines at his premises. Customer uses his generated energy for his own purpose and if still any excess energy with him then it transfer to the grid. In case of short in onsite production then he will consume the energy from grid. In this customer both import/export the electricity from the grid.


So both the way the bills to be generated and shown in the account display (FPL9)


For consumption (Import electricity) from the grid we done the bill and also reflect in FPL9


For Generation (Exporting electricity) i.e what we send the excess energy forward to grid, now we generate the bill for that


How can we generate the bill and how can we show in the account display


For this what we are using the main and sub transaction configuration


Please help me and give any info in this scenario



Thanks

Raja

Hi Raja,

You need to create new rate types,register group and rates having the logic as per the business requirement. These newly rates are then determined with new rate types.

For FPL9 display, to show the amount posted you could be using variant LUMSUM02 in your rate to post the ZLIT with different Sub transaction for one posting consumption from customer to company grid and vice versa.

Create new sub trans in spro then do assignment in ek01/ek02 with adid and gl account which will display the amount in the fpl9 screen separately.

Feel free to ask me if you have any issues/concerns.

Regards,

Saurabh.
