Settlement Data Snapshots
Settlement data snapshots capture data as of a specific point in time for use in aggregation and settlement calculations. For instance, data snapshots can capture data such as:
• The state of a settlement account (a Settlement Item) as of the last time something about the account changed
• The state of a settlement account as of the last time the account was billed
• Metered measurement data used for initial settlement
• Billed measurement data used for final settlement
There are two general categories of settlement data snapshots:
• Attribute Data Snapshots
• Measurement Data Snapshots
