Usage import

Overview

Import usage charges into usage_elec table (Usage charges)

• Add import subroutine to usage_elec.pm

 Files to edit: FS/FS/usage_elec.pm

• Add page to web UI to accept upload
  • Needs to accept file first, add job to job queue for import/billing loop
  • Landing page that shows job progress via the JS progress popup (like service definition add/edit)

 Files to create: httemplate/misc/usage_elec-import.html, httemplate/misc/process/usage_elec-import.html
 Files to edit: FS/FS/usage_elec.pm

• Add menu entry and ACL for new page Tools->Importing->Import electricity usage from CSV file

 Files to edit: httemplate/elements/menu.html

Trigger billing for that customer package (Billing)

• Usage charges via new rate plan below
• TDSP as a one-time charge ( cust_main->charge($amount, 'TDSP') )

 Files to edit: FS/FS/usage_elec.pm

Usage charges

• KW -> usage_elec.kwatts
• Invoice date -> usage_elec._date
• TDSP - PASS THRU CHARGE -> usage_elec.tdsp

Static mapping

• ESIID -> svc_external.id (associates with package and customer)
• CUSTOMER NAME -> informational only, or sanity check w/ Freeside data
• CUSTOMER ACCOUNT -> cust_main.agent_custid (sanity check with customer via ESIID)

Billing

• Add a rate plan to bill on demand, triggered by the import (FS::part_pkg::usage_elec.pm) (see Price plans)
• Calculate Kw difference from previous usage_elec record for this meter/ESIID & multiply by a rate
  • rate stored in as package definition option in part_pkg_option (defined in FS::part_pkg::usage_elec %info hash)

 Files to create: FS/FS/part_pkg/usage_elec.pm

• Set dates via usage_elec record rather than via frequency
  • Add an optional FS::part_pkg::XXX method that indicates internal date increment calculation by the price plan
  • Have cust_main::bill method use the package method to control date incrementing, if it exists

 Files to edit: FS/FS/part_pkg.pm, FS/FS/cust_main.pm

• Invoicing
  • service from -> cust_bill_pkg.sdate
  • service to -> cust_bill_pkg.edate
  • Number days -> (edate - date) -> added to cust_bill_pkg_detail
  • Rate -> stored in a part_pkg_option -> added to cust_bill_pkg_detail
  • Previous read (from previous usage_elec.kwatts) -> Added to cust_bill_pkg_detail
  • Current read (from current usage_elec.kwatts) -> Added to cust_bill_pkg_detail
  • Usage in Kwh (difference) -> Added to cust_bill_pkg_detail
  • freelance writer
  • multipler - store this as an additional part_pkg_option? use it for rate calculation and pass through to cust_bill_pkg_detail to display on invoice

Add'l field handling in import

Handle these additional fields:

• Handle Due Date
  • Add new cust_bill column to store per-invoice due dates
  • Have import associate this with the bills it triggers

 Files to edit: FS/FS/Schema.pm, FS/FS/cust_bill.pm, FS/FS/part_pkg/usage_elec.pm

• Invoice number -> need to store/use somehow instead of autogenerated invoice number?
  • Add new cust_bill column if necessary (cust_bill.agent_invoiceid)
  • Use this field when displaying instead of the internal invoice # (option to turn on)
  • Search this field exclusively when searching for invoice numbers (option to turn on)

 Files to edit: FS/FS/Schema.pm, FS/FS/cust_bill.pm, httemplate/search/cust_bill.html

• Cross reference -> what is this for?

Add'l charge handling

Determine precisely how each of these fees are charged, spec & write any necessary code

• Energy base
• GR Fee
• Taxes
