Renumber Service Route Sequences

All metered service points reference the service cycle and route in which they are read. Besides referencing the specific cycle and route, every service point has a meter read sequence that defines its relative position in the route (where sequence 5 is read before sequence 10). If you need to insert a service point between two existing service points but there's no gap between the service points' sequences, open Menu > Meter Read > Renumber Service Route Sequences to renumber the sequences in a given cycle and route.

Fastpath: Refer to The Cyclical Meter Read Process for more information about cycles and routes.

Description of Page

Use the search button to select the Service Cycle and Service Route whose service points are to be resequenced. When the page opens, you are shown all of the service points in the cycle and route, ordered by current sequence number.

Use the Sequence Range From and To fields to display service points in the grid within a sequence range.

Use the Sequence column in the grid to manually change a service point's sequence number. You can manually change sequence numbers of up to 150 service points at a time. Click the save button to apply your changes. Service points with duplicate sequence numbers are highlighted in the Remarks column.

To resequence all service points within the route, enter the value from which the system should Start Sequencing From and the amount to Increment Sequences by and then click Renumber. Good values to enter would be 5 and 5 respectively. If you specified values in the Sequence Range From fields, only the service points whose sequences fall within the specified range are renumbered.

Note:

A background process, C1-RMRCS, can also be used to renumber service route sequences. It is recommended to use this when the service route to re-sequence has a large number of service points.
