Definition

Length of a billing-relevant period that is determined in period control.

The time portion is relevant for billing in the following cases:

  • For values that are valuated with time-based prices
  • For values that are defined based on time and that are adjusted to the billing period
  • For prices for which the blocks/scales must be adjusted to their time slices

Example of values that are valuated using time-based prices

In this case, the length of each time slice must be calculated, as it is used for valuating the price.

Billing of demand to the day:

                           10 kW 
!--------------------------------------------------!
1/1 time portion = 181 days 6/30

Resulting billing line item:

                     $730 
10 kW * -------- * 181 days = $3620
365 days

Example for values that are defined based on time and that have to be adjusted to the billing period

Month-based extrapolation of a time-dependent quantity:

                     240 kWh for 12 months 
!--------------------------------------------------!
1/1 time portion = 6 months 6/30

Calculation of the quantity based on the time portion:

      240 kWh 
--------- * 6 months = 120 kWh
12 months

Example for prices for which the blocks/scales must be adjusted to their time slices

Block adjustment:

              1st block      0  to  1200 kWh 
!--------------------------------------------------!
              2nd block    1200  to  infinity
      !--------------------------------------------------!
      1/1          time portion = 6 months              6/30

Assumption: according to the price table, blocking is based on 12 months and a block adjustment is to be carried out.

Calculation of the blocks adjusted to the time portion:

       1200 kWh 
--------- * 6 months = 600 kWh
12 months

This produces new blocking:

               1st block    0  to  600 kWh 
!--------------------------------------------------!
               2nd block   600  to  infinity 
!--------------------------------------------------!
1/1 time portion = 6 months 6/30

Procedure for disconnection periods

If a schema step is to account for billing-relevant disconnection periods, the disconnection periods are prorated. In this case, a time portion of zero is calculated for the time slices that fall in the disconnection periods.
For more information on processing disconnection periods, see here.

User exit for calculating time portions

The EBIA0006 enhancement is available for customer-specific calculation of time portions.
