Route Maintenance

Summary

The Route Maintenance window is used to create and maintain meter routes. A meter route is a group of meters that are read and entered into the application as a batch. When meter readings are exported to handheld devices (UB> Meter Management> Readings Export) or manually entered (UB> Meter Management> Input New) they are exported or entered by meter route.

Meter routes are added to a device when a service request is created to install the device. The meter route of a meter can also be modified using the Device Maintenance window (UB> Maintenance> Device, or you can open the window from a customer account in UB> Maintenance> Account> Devices).

If you would like to split a meter route into two separate meter routes, use the Pad Meter Sequences utility (UB> Utilities> Pad Meter Sequences).
