Chapter 11. Favorite and subscribed reports
Favorite reports can be configured at the node or meter level. They allow the option of having a report sent directly to
your mailbox at a defined period. Reports can be subscribed to in the form of hourly, daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly,
half-yearly or annual e-mails. The reports are transmitted as PDF files for saving and printing, or in CSV format (ASCII)
for further editing.
The steps for the actual resolution for the report will differ as this depends on the report type for
example to generate a main consumption report there are 3 steps, for a detailed consumption report there
are 6. This does not alter the steps below.
