UMS Reporting

UMS offers a number of pre-defined reports to help in the management of your Company’s records.

To access these reports, select Reporting from the main menu bar. If the standard UMS queries and formats do not meet all the requirements for your processes, custom reports can also be created.

All UMS reports can be printed, saved electronically, or exported to other applications.

Common Reporting Functions

Report Limits

When you generate a report, especially for large data sets, it is important to define the scope of the information returned so that your report is not encumbered with too much unnecessary information. UMS reports are designed to allow you to limit queries to only applicable information.

Limit Options and Code Filters

Limit options and code filters are two very useful tools for narrowing the range of queried data. These are not always applicable, and are not available for some reports, such as General Ledger reports and operations summary reports. However, almost all of the standard reports will include standard limit options and code filters fields in the left-hand side of the report options dialog box.

image483

Figure 374: Reporting - Limit Options and Code Filters

For specific information on applying limit options and rate codes, see UMS Overview Common Functions.

Date Range

Many reports include date-specific information, and therefore date ranges are useful for limiting the results to only a desired time frame.

Report date ranges are most often in the form of From/To (or From date/Through date) fields, but some reports are designed to pull information as of a particular date (As of field). In some cases, the time frame needs to be limited further, and both the From and To limits will also have an unlabeled time field just below them.

Reporting Date Time

Figure 375: Reporting – Date/Time Range Examples

Note: The headers for the date/time sections will vary according to what type of date is needed, such as Transaction Date or Meter Read Date.

These fields will generally default to the current date/time. Change the dates as needed either by typing a new date or by clicking on the arrow at the end of the box and selecting the desired date from the drop-down calendar. Refer to Dates for more specific information on using the calendar function. If applicable, change times by typing a specific time or using the up/down arrows to select a particular time of day.

Sort Order

For most reports, the results can be sorted by a selected parameter. The sort options are generally fields appearing in the report, although not all report fields are always available for sorting.

Sort order appears as a drop-down menu near the bottom of the report options dialog box. If an order other than the default order is needed, select a sort factor from the drop-down menu.

Report type

There are three primary report types, Detailed, Condensed, and Summary.

Note: These report types may not always be applicable to all reports, and if a type is not applicable, it will not appear in the menu. If a report has a defined format to which these report levels do not apply, the option will not be available at all, and the pre-defined format will be used.

  • Detailed reports include Information for each selected Account, divided by utility. Each listing will generally have one line per utility on the Account. The detailed report will include an overall summary at the end of the document.

    image485

    Figure 376: Detailed Report Example

  • Condensed reports include summary information for each Account, but the results are not broken down into utility-level information. The condensed report will include an overall summary at the end of the document.

    image486

    Figure 377: Condensed Report Example

  • Summary reports include only an overall summary, which is actually the same as the one provided in the detailed and condensed reports.

    image487

    Figure 378: Summary Report Example

Report Output

All reports will have multiple output options. Preview, Print, and Export buttons will be available for all reports, in most cases appearing together near the Close button at the bottom of the report options window.

Refer to Output Options for more specific information on each of these functions.

Exception Reports

In general, exception reports are designed to query the database for any abnormal or unusual information associated with UMS tasks or functions. This includes such items as abnormal bill calculations or discrepant meter readings. The parameters used to determine what constitutes abnormal can be customized for your processes. Any items falling outside of the defined normal limits will appear on the report for review and/or follow-up.

Adjusted Prior Reads

The adjusted prior reads report provides a list of any instances where the prior read for a bill is different than the current read from the previous bill.

Any custom report created will display here, however only individuals with correct security permissions will be able to view and/or print these reports. To access this report type go to Reporting>Custom Reports, and then choose the report to be generated.
