What happens when a device's measuring components are reconfigured (a new measuring component will be read) at a service point?

A. A device with a new configuration type is created.

B. The original installation event is updated with the "removal" (expire old device configuration).

C. A device with a new configuration type is created. Moreover, a new installation event is created to `install" (new device configuration).

D. The original installation event is updated with the "removal" (expire old device configuration) and a new installation event is created to "install" (new device configuration).

E. A new installation event is created to "install" (new device configuration).

How do you ensure that specific Validation, Editing, and Estimation (VEE) rules are applied to estimated measurements?

A. by adding the VEE Group to the Device Configuration Type

B. by adding the estimation rules to the Manual Override VEE Group to the Measuring Component Type

C. by adding the VEE Group to the Device Type

D. by adding the VEE Group as the Fallback VEE Group for the appropriate VEE role

For a customer to receive a Subscription communication, what must they have?

A. an active address contact preference

B. an active address type preference

C. an active person contact preference

D. an active account contact preference

Which configuration steps are required to derive loss-adjusted kWh on a measuring component based on a loss factor value related to a service point?

A. Configure a Service Point Characteristic Type and derivation algorithm, and then associate the algorithm to the Measuring Component Type and the characteristic value to the service point.

B. Configure an SQI and the derivation algorithm, and then associate the algorithm to the Measuring

Component Type and SQI to the service point.

C. Configure a factor and derivation algorithm, and then associate the factor to the Measuring Component Type and the derivation algorithm to the service point.

D. Configure a factor and derivation algorithm, and then associate both to the Measuring Component Type and service point.

E. Configure a Service Point Characteristic Type, factor, derivation algorithm, and Service Quantity Identifier (SQI), and then associate the SQI and derivation algorithm to the Measuring Component Type and the characteristic value to the service point.

New: An electric utility is starting an Advanced Meter Infrastructure (AMI) roll-out for their residential customers. The initial plan is to roll out devices from their manufacturer with potentially three different device models. The customer has not decided what head-end systems they will use to communicate with these devices. Based on the customer's initial roll-out strategy, the devices will have to be configured consistently to support existing tariffs for billing.

Which is a valid consideration to determine the setup of device type administrative data for this implementation?

A. billing usage rules

B. the model number

C. the device's date of manufacturer

D. valid head-end systems, valid device configuration types, and the electricity service type

Measuring components are either subtractive or consumptive. Which statement correctly describes these two concepts?

A. Subtractive measuring components are associated only with water service, whereas consumptive measuring components are for gas and electric services.

B. Subtractive measuring components are used to measure demand, whereas consumptive measuring components are used to measure how much was consumed since the previous reading.

C. Subtractive measuring components are associated with deductive meters, whereas consumptive

measuring components are not.

D. A subtractive measuring component's consumption for a given period of time is the end measurement minus the start measurement. A consumptive measuring component's consumption is simply the measurement itself, and represents the consumption for the period of time since the previous measurement was taken.

Which three statements are true about initial measurements, final measurements, and usage? (Choose three.)

A. Usage is a synonym for bill determinants.

B. The initial measurement data can be optionally stored in Raw format.

C. A service point can have more than one initial measurement for the same period, but only one final measurement.

D. Final measurements can be directly edited or updated by users or by automated processes as required.

E. Usage is loaded in the application to generate final measurements.

Which three statements are correct for Adjustment Types? (Choose three.)

A. They can default an Adjustment Amount to adjustments.

B. They control how adjustments appear on bills.

C. They control whether a rate is to be called to calculate an adjustment amount.

D. They control the valid Service Agreement Types that adjustments can be linked to.

E. They control the valid Adjustment Profiles that adjustment types can belong to.

What correctly describes the order in which algorithms, if plugged in, are executed when a bill changes from the "Pending" state to the "Complete" state?

A. Service Agreement Type - Pre-Bill Completion; Service Agreement Type - Bill Completion; Customer Class - Pre-Bill Completion; Customer Class - Bill Completion; Customer Class - Post-Bill Completion

B. Customer Class - Pre-Bill Completion; Customer Class - Bill Completion; Service Agreement Type Pre-Bill Completion; Service Agreement Type - Post-Bill Completion

C. Customer Class - Pre-Bill Completion; Service Agreement Type - Pre-Bill Completion; Customer Class

- Bill Completion; Service Agreement Type - Bill Completion; Customer Class - Post-Bill Completion

D. Service Agreement Type - Pre-Bill Completion; Customer Class - Pre-Bill Completion; Service Agreement Type - Bill Completion; Customer Class - Bill Completion; Customer Class - Post-Bill Completion

E. Service Agreement Type - Pre-Bill Completion; Customer Class - Pre-Bill Completion; Service Agreement Type - Bill Completion; Customer Class - Bill Completion; Service Agreement Type - Post-Bill Completion; Customer Class - Post- Bill Completion

At what stage in the initial measurement data (IMD) import process will the application of meter multipliers be performed?
