Utilities

For utility providers managing accounts, meters, tariffs, bills and balances. Employees read meters and office staff checks and records readings for billing, while customers can view and pay bills through the company’s portal; bank and counter payments remain available alongside it.

How it works in practice

The meter reader and billing office record consumption, then the resident receives and pays the bill.

The meter reader checks the meter

A utility employee reads the meters on the route and passes the readings to the billing office.

The successful portal payment automatically pays the bill and updates the account balance.

All steps

An illustrative workflow. Available steps depend on the configured modules. Accounting entries require enabled posting and configured accounts.

Features

Keep meters, reviewed readings, issued bills and customer payments in the account’s context.

Accounts and meters

Keep the customer account, service points, meters and tariffs together before the billing period starts. Office staff can review which services belong to the account and follow its bills and outstanding balance without rebuilding the customer’s record in separate sheets.

Review the customer, metering points and account details.

Readings and billing

Employees read meters on their routes, and authorized office staff enters and checks readings by route and month before billing. Optional resident submissions follow a separate review and acceptance step; they become official readings only after staff accepts them.

Review readings for a selected billing period.
Prepare and review a metered billing period.

Customer bills and payments

Customers view and pay bills through the company’s own portal. Successfully confirmed portal payments are recorded automatically and fully covered bills become paid; bank payments require staff checking and confirmation, while paying at the counter remains an alternative to the portal.

Your company’s portal

Every company has its own customer portal, at its Smetko address or on its own domain.

{firma-portal}.smetko.mkorportal.firma.mk

Customers can review their bills in the portal.
