This section will explain what to do when the Meter Reading Export Report contains Exceptions. 

There are five reasons for an exception. 

When the Meter Number AMR is flagged within the Exception Reason Column of the Meter Reading Export Report, it means the Meter itself has an issue. They will fall into one of the following three categories: 

• The Meter is Flagged for Investigation
• The Meter is in Exception
• The Meter is QuarantinedAn automatic reading was possible, but AMR has been flagged for investigation
• An automatic reading was possible, but AMR is marked as being in exception
• An automatic reading was possible, but AMR is quarantined

If the Meter itself isn't the issue, then a message in the Exception column will state "No manual or automatic reading was possible within the reporting period" and it will be due to one of the following reasons: 

• There is no Manual Meter Reading within the Billing and Tolerance date, days back
• There is no Usage Recorded (including zero L/hr) between the Billing date and Tolerance date, days back
