Definition

When you select this field, a fixed temperature is used for calculating the volume correction factor. You must enter the fixed temperature key in the SAP Menu under Utilities Industry -> Device Management -> Device Installation -> Installation -> Full , in the FxdTmp field.

You can use the IMG activity Maintain Fixed Temperature Values to historically change fixed temperature values. This is done under Contract Billing -> Special Functions -> Gas Billing -> Volume Correction Factor -> Temperature. In Germany the fixed temperature used is usually 14°C.

Alternatively, you can calculate the temperature as an arithmetic or weighted average for one year or for the billing period.
