About Usage Calculation Requests

Usage calculation request are calculations executed at a customer level where there may be more than one calculation per usage subscription. For example, a customer may have a usage subscription for producing billing determinants but there may be additional calculations that will be executed on a much less frequent basis (annually, quarterly, etc). More specifically, usage calculation requests are used to calculate service point quantities (see About Service Point Quantities for more information).

Usage calculation requests are defined by the following:

• Usage Calculation Type: The usage calculation type for the request. Usage calculation types define the service point quantity type and UOM/TOU/SQI for quantities calculated for requests of that type.
• Start Date/Time: The start of the date range for the request.
• End Date/Time: The end of the date range for the request.
