Defining Bill Factor TOU Values
Open to maintain time of use bill factor values.
TOU Bill Factor values must reference a bill factor and characteristic. You must set up a bill factor and its characteristics before you can define TOU values. Refer to Setting Up Bill Factors for more information.
Description of Page
The BF Characteristic TOU Group search button gives you the ability to search for existing TOU BF values for a Bill Factor, Characteristic and TOU Group combination.
The BF Characteristic search button gives you the ability to search for a Bill Factor, Characteristic combination to which the TOU values will be linked.
Once a bill factor and characteristic combination are chosen, the system displays the values of the Bill Factor, Characteristic Type, Characteristic Value and Value Type.
Choose the TOU Group to determine the collection of time of use codes to which prices will be defined.
Indicate the Effective Date of the collection of Time of Use codes and their Values.
Where Used
Various rate component algorithms make use of TOU value information. This information is also available for any type of algorithm that may need to use the information, for example interval data derivation algorithms.
