TB - totalConsumptionTolZeroCheck.xml
Checks zero consumption on this bill and/or previous bill
*Similar to TB - tltalCosumptionTolYearZeroCheck.xml, which checks the previous years bill.
Validator Set Up
Variables
| Variable | Description |
|---|---|
| Tolerance % for consumption variation on previous Tenant Bill, if both non-zero: | Percentage variance allowed where current bill and previous bill consumption greater than zero |
| PASS if present bill = zero, previous bill = zero (bzz) | Select if validation should pass where both current and previous bills are zero bzz – pass if this bill and the previous bill both have zero consumption |
| PASS if present bill = zero, previous bill non zero (bznz) | Select if validation should pass where the current bill is zero but the previous bill has consumption e.g. where property is now empty bznz – pass if this bill has zero consumption, previous bill has consumption |
| PASS if present bill = non-zero, previous bill zero (bnzz) | Select if validation should pass where current bill has consumption and previous bills are zero e.g. property was previously empty bnzz – pass if this bill has consumption and previous bill has zero consumption |
| PASS if cons difference % fails but kWh trivial, below significance limit (ignored if 0) | Enter a kWh value that can be used if the validator fails but by a small amount e.g. Main tolerance set to 10% and 500 kWh significance limit: Current cons = 4975 kWh Previous cons = 4500 kWh Difference = 475 This fails 10% tolerance as 4950 is the limit, but passes as less than 500 significance limit |

Failure Prompt
Explanation: - This example is where the Pass if this bill has consumption, and the previous bill has zero consumption is ticked
Total cons within % of previous Tenant Bill. PASS/FAIL on selected bill = zero criteria: FAILED
kWhLimit=0.00 - the 'Pass if cons difference%' figure in the Validator (last field) = 0
TolPcent=0.00 - the 'Tolerance' set in the Validator (first field) = 0
LoLimit=34.6 - the consumption in the previous bill 34.6 kWh
bznz=0.00 - - 0 = not set in this validator, but if ticked, will pass if this bill has consumption and the previous bill has zero consumption
HiLimit=34.653 - the consumption in the previous bill - 34.653 kWh
bzz=0.00 - 0 = not set in this validator, but if ticked, will pass if this bill and the previous bill both have zero consumption
PrevCons=34.653 - consumption on the previous bill 34.653 kWh (therefore did not pass validation as the previous bill has consumption, it was not zero)
bnzz =1.00 - 1 = set in this validator and will pass if this bill has consumption, and the previous bill has zero consumption
kWhDiff=4333.347 - the difference between this bills consumption and the previous bills, 4368 (this bill) - 34.653 (previous bill) = 4333.347
PresCons=4368 - consumption on this bill - 4368 kWh
