Vector and Service Quantity Math

This rule is designed to facilitate configuration of complex vector and scalar quantity calculations. It is based on a series of underlying services, including Axis Conversion, Apply Formula (most importantly), and Apply TOU Map. It can be configured to accept as input up to five vectors - where a single vector can represent the combination of all measuring components with linkages to the Usage Subscription with the configured UOM/SQI. It can also accept a list of scalar variables that can be taken in as factor values, usage transaction service quantities, set functions on a vector, or numeric values.

Vectors can be combined using a simple formula expression, or using condition formula expressions. Both interval values and interval conditions can be referenced. The result is interval-by-interval processing of the vector formula. The resulting final vector can be stored, TOU mapped, and/or subjected to a final set function (such as sum or max).

This rule stores service quantities of type "other" - meaning that the service quantities created by this rule do not have linkages to a specific Service Point or measuring component, given the potentially diverse sources of the data taken as input by this rule that lead to the final quantity.

Note:

Additional detail on the logic of this rule can be found in the Detailed Description of the D2-MATH Algorithm Type.

For help with the meaning of specific configuration fields, refer to the embedded help on the screen when adding or editing the rule.
