How Excel is used
How meter readings work in Excel
Keeping registration, execution, confirmation, and history in one flow reduces misses and improves handoff quality.
Step 1
Register meter details
Align meter ID, location, multiplier, and unit first so later readings can be compared.
Step 2
Enter current readings
Enter current readings by date, with the reader and site notes.
Step 3
Check usage variance
Review current versus previous variance to find spikes, drops, and missing readings.
Step 4
Confirm exception reasons
Record reasons and handling status for unusual usage so month-end review is easier.
