AMI billing rate calculation task adapter

The AMI Billing Rate Calculation Task Adapter task template allows you to define how billing calculations are processed if there are exceptions. It also allows you to define the subsequent processes to start and what the trigger is for the next process.

Use the following procedure to configure a task template:

  1. Go to System Operations > Task Management > Task Templates.

  2. Use the dropdown menu to select the Task Type and Task Template. (Click Add to create a new task template. For more information, see Adding task templates.)

  3. Configure the Task specific parameters. These parameters are defined after step 5 of this procedure.

  4. Configure the Common task template parameters. For more information, see Task template parameters.

  5. Click Save.

Task specific parameters:

ClosedRe-Processing Bill Items With Exception

Determines whether IEE attempts to re-process requests that had exceptions. Select True to configure the task to run periodically to attempt to re-process unassigned requests with exceptions. Select False to disable this feature.

ClosedTrigger Next Processor by Chunk

Determines how frequently subsequent processes are triggered. In general, this setting minimizes the number of billing determinant calculation tasks that are created. Select True to instruct the import process to automatically trigger the billing determinant calculation task after N requests are processed. N is calculated by IEE using the following formula: Billing Determinant Calculation Chunk Size / Import Chunk Size. If set to False, all requests in a single batch are processed by each step in succession.
