Description: As a first step of Metered Service Bill Segment calculation, CC&B determines consumption to be billed. The system first determines the Bill Period boundary. The end date is either the end date of Bill cycle schedule window, the Service Agreement's end date, or, determined by the CSR or Authorized User for online Billing. If this is the first Bill Segment for the Service Agreement, the Bill Segment start date is set to the start date of the Service Agreement, otherwise the start date is the previous Bill Segment's end date. The system next determines the Consumption Period boundary, and retrieves appropriate Service Point, Meter, and associated Meter Reads. Meter Reads determine the start and end date for the Bill Segment Consumption Period.
Note: The system ignores Service Points that are not billable, disconnected before the Bill period started, or are yet to be connected as of the Bill end date.
