Processing Usage Input
Usage Input processing is a batch process run by the system that derives rated amount from a given quantity, updates the Usage and Billing Schedules and sets the Input Status to Rated if the input data is accurate.
You can process multiple usage inputs in one go from the Usage Inputs Homepage. At the top of the page, next to View, Click Go to see all Usage Inputs entered in the system.
Select the check box for those Usage Inputs which you want to process and click Process Usage Input(s).
Similarly, to unrate the processed inputs in bulk, select the check box for multiple inputs and click Unrate Usage Input(s).
The processing is unsuccessful in case,
- The Asset Line Item does not exist for the given Asset Number.
- There is no usage schedule found for the Asset as mentioned on the Usage Date.
In both cases, the Usage Input Status will be set to Error. Go to Usage Input Detail page to view the Message to understand the cause of error.
You can also Unrate a processed usage Input from the Usage Input Detail view if inaccurate quantity or pricing has been processed. Click Unrate Usage Input.
With the Conga Billing application, when you process usage inputs, you will receive an email notification at the conclusion of the process with the following information:
- Number of Usage Inputs processed: X
- Number of Usage Inputs processed successfully: X
- Number of Usage Inputs processed with errors: X
