  • Below is a discussion of the table’s contents

1.Project Name: Displays all project names, allows you to search for a   specific  project by name, and enables grouping by project

2.Zone Name: Displays all zones names, allows you to search for a specific zone by name, and enables grouping by zone

8.Invoice Type : All available data is categorized by fuel type such as water, chilled water, etc and can be filtered based on a specific fuel  type

 9.Consumption: represents the original usage data for each fuel type, directly sourced from invoices or input systems. It is used as the base for calculations and dashboard analytics.

10.Unit : All units associated with the uploaded invoices are stored in this  Column

11.Consumption Energy: Consumption Energy is the cleaned and calculated energy usage derived from raw data, used for  accurate reporting and   analysis 

12.Consumption m3 : represents the original usage data for each fuel type in m3 unit , directly sourced from invoices or input systems. It is used as the base for calculations and dashboard analytics.

13.TCO2: This column represents the carbon emissions calculated based on utility provider data from the uploaded invoices

14.Total Utility Amount(AED): This column shows the total cost associated with each account number based on the uploaded invoices, and is typically used for dashboard calculations

15.Consumption Charges:it is  the cost calculated based on actual usage of a utility or resource, typically measured in units (e.g., kWh, liters, or cubic meters) along with time zone

16.Demand Charges :are costs billed based on the peak power usage (kW) during a billing cycle, rather than total energy consumed (kWh).

17.VAT (Value-Added Tax): is a type of indirect tax that is applied at each stage of the supply chain where value is added  from production to the point of sale. All these VAT values are derived from the uploaded invoices

18.Sewage:The Sewage section in the Consumption Table records the sewage-related consumption details for each customer. When invoices are uploaded through the system, corresponding sewage consumption data is extracted and stored in this table for tracking and billing purposes

19.Current Reading:The current reading refers to the latest meter value captured from a specific meter. This reading is utilized during the billing process to calculate the consumption and generate accurate bills

20.Premise Number :A premise number is a unique identifier assigned to a specific physical location (or premises) where a utility service (like electricity, water, or gas) is provided.

21.Uploaded At: This column displays the invoice upload date, which is automatically recorded in the Consumption table when a user uploads bills
