How can I use this report to help plan Meter Readings?

To streamline your meter reading process, run this report for future dates to determine when invoices are scheduled to be sent. By posting meter readings to invoices before these dates (at least one day prior is required), the emailed invoice to the guest will include accurate utility charges for that period.

This report provides you with the following essential information:

  • Guest Information (name, email, phone)
  • Invoice Email Date: Crucial for meter reading planning, as the reading needs to be recorded one day prior to this date)
  • Invoice Information (Due Date, Invoice Number, Invoice Period)
  • Total Charges
