This section describes bill factors for interval and TOU values, and how they are used to levy the many charges referenced in a rate. See
Setting Up Bill Factors for information about bill factors in other situations.
Most bill factors exist to support calculations performed by rate components. This means that you must design your rate components before you can design your bill factors. We strongly recommend that you design "on paper" how every rate's rate components looks before you attempt to set up bill factors.
