Compact gauge readings
Field
Description
Gauge
Displays the linked gauge.
Reading date-time
Displays the date-time at which the reading is recorded.
Reading value
Displays the recorded reading.
Reliable measurement?
If the reading qualifies as reliable, select Yes. If it is unreliable, select No.
Compact reading details
In this field you can link relevant reading details to the reading.
Gauge reading
Displays the date of compact gauge reading.
Standing costs
If applicable, this field displays a fixed amount to be paid. This value is based on the cost profile that was selected while adding a gauge and the time period with respect to previous reading. You can also choose to manually add standing costs to specific gauge readings.
Unit-based costs
If applicable, this field displays the calculated unit-based costs as defined in the cost profile or price per reading. This value is only calculated if you have set the option Calculate unit cost to Yes in Field definer > Business object settings > Compact gauge readings.
Price per unit incl. tax/VAT
In case the costs involved in the readings are variable, you can manually enter a Price per unit incl. tax/VAT and Standing costs on individual meter readings.
Unit-based costs: (reading value * price per unit incl. tax/VAT) + standing costs.
If you leave this field empty, the cost calculation takes place via the Cost profile. The price per unit will then be the same for each meter reading.
* 
If you fill in Price per unit incl. tax/VAT, the Tax/VAT field must be left empty, because the field already consists of : Price per unit + Tax/VAT.
Price per unit excl. tax/VAT
In case the costs involved in the readings are variable, you can manually enter a Price per unit excl. tax/VAT, Tax/VAT and Standing costs on individual meter readings.
Unit-based costs: (reading value * price per unit excl. tax/VAT) + Tax/VAT + standing costs.
If you leave this field empty, the cost calculation takes place via the Cost profile. The price per unit will then be the same for each meter reading.
* 
The Tax/VAT on the reading will overrule the Tax/VAT of the profile. The Tax/VAT field can either be filled with an applicable percentage or left empty.
* 
You can either use the Price per unit incl. tax/VAT field or Price per unit excl. tax/VAT field but not both.
Tax/VAT
Select an applicable Tax/VAT percentage. The value is only used if you fill in Price per unit excl. tax.
Emission
Displays the amount of CO₂ emitted. This value is based on the impact area that was defined while adding a gauge. This value is only calculated if you have set the option Calculate CO2 to Yes in Field definer > Business object settings > Compact gauge readings.
Gigajoule
Displays the calculated energy usage in Gigajoule. This value is only calculated if you have set the option Calculate gigajoules to Yes in Field definer > Business object settings > Compact gauge readings.
