Apply Math (Interval Data)
This rule is used to perform calculations on interval data and it stores the results in the usage transaction's service quantities. A variety of options are available on this rule that include defining the calculation type, variables to use, as well as the equation to use (math functions and expressions).
Additional detail on the logic of this rule can be found in the Detailed Description of the D2-APPMATHIN 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.

Calculation Type = Single Variable |
|
Variable Name = V1, where the following is configured:
|
Scenario 2: Get the higher value between the total KWH or total KVARH
|
Calculation Type = Math Function |
|
Math Function = Max |
|
Variable Name = V1, where the following is configured:

Variable Name = V2, where the following is configured:
|
Scenario 3: Total KWH multiplied with a factor value
|
Calculation Type = Mathematical Expression |
|
Mathematical Expression = V1 * V2 |
|
Variable Name = V1, where the following is configured:

Apply Math Usage Calculation Rules and Anchor Time
The Apply Math usage calculation rule supports usage calculations based on an "Anchor Time". The Anchor Time is specified on certain measuring component types and defines defines the start and end time of the business day for purposes of processing measurement data and usage transactions. When processing usage calculations for measuring components whose type specifies an Anchor Time, the Start Time and End Time of the calculation period should match the Anchor Time on the measuring component type.
