Understanding Consumption Extract Type

The Consumption Extract Type controls which service point's measurements are extracted for Oracle Utilities DataConnect, what type of measurement is extracted, and how the measurements are grouped into TOU periods (if preferred).

The Consumption Extract Type also controls the request type used for creating Consumption Extract Requests of this type, how frequent automated requests are created for incremental extract, the batch jobs that are triggered for extracting data and the algorithms that extract, format, and write the data that is extracted.

Refer to the Oracle Utilities DataConnect integration section for more details on how this object is specifically put into use.
