About Meter Readings

Updated by Cheryl Wallace

Meter Readings are part of the add-on Service module. This feature is used to record non-date based meter reading values in order to establish service dates for tasks for serialized inventory. When a reading is taken, all readings for the item based on the same meter will be updated.  A popup message will be displayed if the item is due for service based on the updated reading.

Meter readings can be edited but the item's task will only be updated if the last reading date is less than or equal to the reading date.

Watch this video for an understanding of managing preventative maintenance and emergency repairs with the Service module.
Watch this video for a walk through of taking meter readings on TH6 Mobile.
