Generate Bills For Metered Connections

Last updated 4 months ago

Overview

Unlike non-metered connections with a billing cycle for demand & bills generated automatically, a metered connection needs more inputs, which helps in volumetric billing.

Design & Workflow

A revenue collector can see a CTA to “Generate a new Bill” on the Household details screen.

  1. Clicking “Generate a new Bill” takes users to the bill generation screen where new meter reading details are entered.

  2. The field on the bill generation screen for metered connections is displayed in the table below.

  3. Clicking on “Generate bill” takes the user to the bill generation successful screen.

  4. Logic for Bill ID number - “RB - dd/mm/yyyy-yy/running_sequence_number”.

  5. There are 3 user actions on the success screen

    • Download bill - Download bill as PDF (name of PDF is always the Bill ID by default)

    • Share bill on WhatsApp - Share bill as PDF on WhatsApp

    • Collect Payment - navigates the revenue collector to the payment collection screen

  6. Share on WhatsApp opens the WhatsApp share popup with the option to choose contacts/groups. The bill is shared with the below text and attached PDF details -

    Text “ Dear, water bill for 1 - 30 has been generated for consumer ID for Rs. 250. Click attached as PDF”

Input Metric
Description
Comments

Previous Meter reading

Only for first-time bill generation

New meter reading

For the first time and all consecutive bill generations

Previous meter reading units and previous meter reading dates will be taken from the last bill for new bill generation

Meter reading date

The default is the current date. Revenue collectors can change it to a previous date if required.

To find details on Demand Generation Logic refer to the Demand/Bill Generation for metered connection.

  1. All 5 digits in the meter reading must be entered. Show error message “ Old Meter Reading entered is Invalid” or “ New Meter Reading entered is invalid” respectively.

  2. The New Meter reading should be greater than the Old Meter Reading.

  3. The meter reading date is by default set to <today's date> but the user has the option to change it.
