Creating the Account

Open the Estate Management Activity

        

  • Search for and highlight the Site in the Data Selector 
  • Right click on the Site to view all the Sites, Accounts and Meters that are already attached to the Site

In this example, there are 3 Supply Points, but only two Accounts 

         


To check if the Account has been added to Sigma, but not attached to the Supply Point, click on the Accounts Tab

In this example, you can see that there isn't a water Account.

         


In this example, the Supply Point has been created, but no Account (or Meter) is attached 

  • Highlight the Supply Point to see the details

         


To add the Account:

  • Click Actions > Add > Account

         

          

The Account Editor pop up appears.

Add the following:

  • Account Number 
  • Group id (if required) - for example this could be the Supply Number 
  • Commodity - choose from the dropdown
  • Meter number - add the Meter number connected to the Account
  • Asset Type - (optional) - choose from the dropdown

         

  • Click OK to save the Account


The Account now shows in the mini Tree View on the Site Summary tab

         


Now that you have Account, it will need to be connected to the Supply Point.

Adding a Contract to the Supply Point (if it doesn't already exist)

If the Supply Point has been created, but the Contract has not been attached, or is out of date,  the Supply Point will show in Red.

This will need to be done before you can attach the Account.
