Today’s meter-to-cash process is far more sophisticated than in the past. For example, it is common knowledge that an AMI system’s interval data allows for more complex billing methods like TOU and NET metering. Still, the meter-to-cash process no longer refers to simply getting a monthly meter reading and calculating a bill based on this consumption. Instead, the process involves much more regarding system performance, billing exception handling, revenue protection, and collections. The common element to all these processes is that they involve CIS, MDM, AMI, and MWF applications. Therefore, to get the most efficiency from an investment is to have a modern solution across all these applications.
