Platform/Meter Read Ingestion
Meter reads

Three ways in. One billing cycle.

AMI auto-fetch. AMR file import. Manual reads from the field. Current accepts every method your utility uses and puts each read in the same place, ready for review.

How it works

Your meters. Your methods. Same cycle.

Create a billing cycle and bring reads in however your utility collects them. Every read lands in the same import step, hits the same exception rules, and flows into the same review queue.

Create the cycle

Open a new billing cycle. AMI meters fetch automatically. AMR files and manual routes attach to the same run.

Reads arrive

AMI refreshes on its own. AMR files drop in with no reformatting. Field crews enter reads on their phone and billing sees them live.

Exceptions are flagged

High usage, zero reads, and out-of-range values surface in one queue, no matter where the read came from.

Review and bill

Resolve exceptions, confirm the cycle, and post. One workflow for AMI, AMR, and manual reads.

AMI

Reads fetch when the cycle starts.

Connect your AMI network and let Current pull reads automatically each time you open a billing cycle. No export files. No overnight batch jobs. Meters refresh and exceptions queue up before you review a single bill.

  • Auto-fetch on cycle creation
  • Reads refresh without manual intervention
  • Same exception queue as AMR and manual reads
  • Usage history attached to every flagged account

All AMI reads imported into Cycle 03. Ready for exception review.
AMR

Drop in a vendor file. Reads are in.

Drag and drop AMR exports from Neptune, Sensus, Badger/Beacon, Zenner, Kamstrup, and other vendors directly into your billing cycle. Current maps the file to your meters. No spreadsheet cleanup required.

  • Native support for major AMR vendor formats
  • Drag and drop into the billing cycle import step
  • Automatic meter matching and exception flagging
  • Multiple files per cycle, route by route or all at once

Mobile meter reading

Field crews read. Billing sees it live.

For door-to-door manual reads, technicians enter values on their phone. Billing admins watch reads arrive in real time with no file transfer. Start reviewing bills for those locations the moment the crew finishes a stop.

  • Printable route sheets generated from the billing cycle
  • High/low thresholds printed per stop for field reference
  • Reads sync to the cycle as they are entered
  • Exceptions flagged the moment a read is saved

The payoff

One cycle. Every read type. No extra tools.

Automatic

AMI reads fetch and refresh when you create a new billing cycle.

Drag and drop

AMR vendor files import directly with no reformatting or manual cleanup.

Real time

Manual reads from the field appear in billing the moment they are entered.

From the field
“We run AMI for most of the system, AMR files for two routes, and manual reads downtown. All of it lands in the same cycle. We are not juggling three different workflows anymore.”
