Interval Register Data Maintenance

The Interval Register Data page is used to create and maintain collections of interval register data, grouped together by a data set, for a given interval register.

Open Menu > Interval Billing > Interval Register Data > Search to maintain interval register data.

Note:

This page is only available if the Meter Data Management module is not turned off.

Description of Page

Register Data Set is a concatenation of important information about the data set. The Register Data Set ID is a system-assigned random number.

Indicate the Register ID to which this data set is linked.

Note:

It is possible that the register cannot be identified when adding interval register data. If the Register ID is not populated, the Data Set External ID must be populated. Refer to Upload Interval Register Data for more information.

The Data Set External ID is the external identifier of the interval register. It will correspond to the channel ID on the interval register. It may be used when a register cannot be found for data interfaced from outside the system. Refer to Upload Interval Register Data for more information.

The Set Date/Time of the Register Data Set represent when this collection of data was entered or received. This is considered a server date and follows the seasonal time shifting as defined on the base time zone. Refer to Seasonal Time Shifts for more information.

Fastpath:

Refer to Algorithms Find the Most Up-To-Date Data for more information about the Set Date /Time and its use in algorithms.

The Data Set Type is available for classification of the data set in some way. The values currently available with the system are:

No Data Refer to Fixing Errors with Complete Data for more information about using this data set type.

Estimation Use this value if the data set contains estimated values based on a validation algorithm. Refer to the IRVA-CLN algorithm for an example of an algorithm that creates estimated interval register values.

Note:

The values for Data Set Type are customizable using the lookup table. This field name is REG_​DS_​TYPE_​FLG.

The Status indicates the status of the interval profile data set. Click Cancel DS to cancel a Pending or Error data set.

Fastpath:

Refer to Lifecycle of Interval Register Data for more information about interval data set status.

Use the Revert button to reverse the effect of a Complete data set.

Fastpath:

Refer to Fixing Errors with Complete Data for more information.

Use the Start Date/Time to indicate the starting point for the display of the interval data.

At least one interval data record must exist in the collection of interval data. For each interval data record, the Interval Register Date/Time and the Interval Register Data value are captured. This date is considered a logical date and follows the seasonal time shifting as defined on the interval register type. Refer to Seasonal Time Shifts for more information.

If the data set is in Error status, a Message that provides the error information is displayed below the interval data collection.

If seasonal time shift records are linked to both the base time zone and the interval register type, the Seasonal Time Shift associated with your interval register type is displayed. Refer to Setting Up Interval Register Types for more information.

If seasonal time shift records are linked to both the base time zone and the interval register type, the Seasonal Time Shift Remark indicates whether the data is displayed and should be entered in legal time or standard time. Refer to Interval Time Display for more information. If the data is displayed in legal time use the Show in Standard button to toggle to standard time. If the data is displayed in standard time use the Show in Legal button to toggle to legal time. If either the interval register type or the base time zone do not indicate a seasonal time shift record, the toggle button is not visible and data is displayed and expected in standard time.
