About Metered Service Points

Metered service points represent service points in Oracle Utilities Customer Cloud Service (or Oracle Utilities Customer to Meter).

Metered service points are created via a data synchronization process between Digital Asset Cloud Service and Customer Cloud Service.

Metered service points are defined by the following:

• Metered Service Point Type: The metered service point type record on which the metered service point is based. Service points types define certain parameters and attributes of a class of metered service points.

• Division: The operating company or operating division within a large conglomerate of utilities associated with the metered service point.  

• Weather Station: The weather station associated with the metered service point. Weather stations are mapped to metered service points based on geographical location. When a metered service point is added or updated, an algorithm maps the metered service point to the nearest weather station using the Location Information (specifically the geographic latitude and longitude). If longitude and latitude are not available, mapping is done based on the metered service point's postal code and assigns the weather station defined for the Postal Code Default that includes the service point's postal code.

• Status: The current status of the metered service point.

• External Service Point ID: An ID used to identify the metered service point in an external system.

• External Premise ID: An ID used to identify the premise associated with the metered service point in an external system.

• Main Contact: The program contact associated with the metered service point.

• Address and Location Information: The address (including city, state, postal code, and country) and geographic location of the metered service point.

• Field Information: Information related to field work performed at the metered service point, including any applicable warnings or instructions

• Distribution Network Facility: The network node closest to the metered service point. In terms of electric networks, facilities typically represent transformers.

• Access Group: The access group used to control which groups of users have access to the metered service point (if applicable). See Defining Access Groups in the Administrative User Guide for more information.
