Water Meter Readings List Window

This window is where all the water meter readings that you have recorded are listed.

This window has the following menu buttons available. (See the List Windows topic to learn more about list windows in general.)

  • New. Use this function to create a new water meter reading.
  • Edit. Use this function to make changes to the reading.
  • Delete. Use this function to delete the reading. Note that you can only delete things in Fusion if they are not used anywhere else. This is so Fusion has a complete history.
  • Advanced Find. For finding information within the list. See Advanced Find Window for more information.
  • Advanced Sort. For sorting the list. See Advanced Sort Window for more information.
  • Advanced Print. For printing information from the list. See Advanced Print Window for more information.

Getting Here

You can open this window by going to Fusion Core → Attributes → List Water Meter Readings.

List Description

Each water meter needs to have a reading recorded periodically so Fusion can calculate the amount of water used in tempering. We recommend recording this at least once a month. Once a week is probably better. When Fusion calculates water used in tempering it tries to get a meter recording from this list from before and after the date in question. It then figures out the amount of the tempered commodity used in the same period and distributes the water equally for the time period. If meter reading does not exist on each side of the time period, Fusion uses the closest such time period it can. There must be at least two meter readings before this will work.

Field Display Speed Description
Water Meter Normal The name of the water meter the reading was taken from.
Read Date Normal The date of the reading. We recommend always taking the reading at the same time of day, preferably at the beginning or end of the day for best results.
Read Time Normal The time of the reading.
User Normal The person who recorded the reading.
Reading (gal (Imp)) Normal The reading on the water meter.
Reset After Reading? Normal Will be "Yes" if the meter was reset to a zero reading at the time of the reading. This is not necessary if you don't want to.
Amount Not In Loads (t) Normal You may have a certain amount of the ingredient that was tempered but not included in any loads during the time period. For example, you may have sold some of the tempered ingredient. By telling Fusion the amount that was not included in regular loads, it can properly calculate the moisture percentage.
Note Normal You can make a note for each reading.
