Understanding Units of Measure

Units of Measure (UOM) identify quantities measured and recorded, such as KWH, KW, cubic feet, degrees Celsius, etc. UOMs are based on a specific service type.

Note: In Oracle Utilities Customer To Meter, Units of Measure are maintained via Merged Maintenance.

Important Unit of Measure System Events

Unit of Measure supports the following business object algorithm system events:

Axis Conversion: this event receives a list of measurements along with a source UOM and interval size and a target UOM and interval size. It should then perform the necessary actions to convert the source UOM and interval size into the target UOM and interval size. Refer to the algorithm Axis Conversion algorithm (D1-AXIS-CONV) as an example.
