SAP ISU - Meter to Cash

In this blog I will discuss the Meter to cash process in SAP ISU.

In the utilities market, the “Meter to Cash” process is an end-to-end procedure that involves providing utilities to customers and receiving payment. The main goal is to generate (produce) and supply utilities to end users (customers) while ensuring a steady revenue stream.

There are several processes to be done for Meter to Cash”.

1. Meter Reading: Collect meter data by recording readings from the meters.
2. Billing: Calculate charges using the meter readings and generate billing documents. Note: Charges are determined by the utility company.
3. Invoicing: Generate and send invoices to customers based on the billing information, including printing the invoices and dispatching emails and messages.
4. Payment Collection and Reconciliation:Upon receiving customer payments, promptly process and record the transactions. Confirm that payments correspond with the invoices and accurately update financial records to reflect the customer’s balance.
5. Customer Service: Resolve any inquiries or concerns regarding billing and payments.

Note: In each step of the process there are validation rules put in place to ensure the correct data is captured, billed, invoiced, and collected by the customer.

This process enables a utility company to efficiently manage revenue by converting meter readings into financial transactions, thereby ensuring accurate billing and effective payment processing.
