Best Practices & Tips
Best Practices & Tips
Managing Web-Suspect Meters: This is a great tool for managing suspect meters entered via eInfo by your customers, as they automatically come through with a source of "Web-Suspect". These suspect meters come in as invalid and therefore won't be used in the contract billing queue until someone checks the meter and validates it. Having this report send to the billing admin to review the web-suspect meters from the prior day allows for an organized way to have them validate the meter and contact the customer if needed.
