Service Point (SP) Type Segmentation
Every SA Type whose service agreements exist to bill for service point-oriented service has one or more SP types. These define which type of service points can be linked to the SA type's service agreements. If different service agreements have different valid SP types, you will need to split the SA types accordingly.
For each service point-oriented SA type, determine if there are any restrictions in respect of the types of service points that can use the SA type's rates. For example, if we assume that only commercial SP types can be used by commercial customers, industrial SP types by industrial customers, residential SP types by residential customers, your SA types will be:
CIS Division/ SA Type | Service Type | Distribution Code | Revenue Class | Rates | SP Type |
CA/G-RES | Gas service | A/R-UTIL | R - residential | GALL-1 | G-RES |
CA/G-COM | Gas service | A/R-UTIL | C - commercial | GALL-1 | G-COM |
CA/G-IND | Gas service | A/R-UTIL | I - industrial | GALL-1 | G-IND |
CA/W-RES | Water service | A/R-UTIL | N/A | WALL-1 | W-RES |
CA/W-COM | Water service | A/R-UTIL | N/A | WALL-1 | W-COM |
CA/W-IND | Water service | A/R-UTIL | N/A | WALL-1 | W-IND |
CA/E-RES | Electric service | A/R-UTIL | N/A | ERES-1, ERES-2 | E-RES |
CA/E-COM | Electric service | A/R-UTIL | N/A | ECOM-1 | E-COM |
CA/E-IND | Electric service | A/R-UTIL | N/A | EIND-1 | E-IND |
CA/WW-RES | Wastewater service | A/R-UTIL | N/A | WWALL-1 | W-RES, WW-RES |
CA/WW-COM | Wastewater service | A/R-UTIL | N/A | WWALL-1 | W-COM, WW-COM |
CA/WW-IND | Wastewater service | A/R-UTIL | N/A | WWALL-1 | W-IND, WW-IND |
CA/CABLE | Cable service | A/R-UTIL | N/A | CABLE | CABLE |
Notice the wastewater SA types reference both water and waste water service points. This is intentional as wastewater service uses the consumption from the water service to calculate some part of the wastewater charge.
