  • Show details Hide details
  • What causes this issue?

    When you enter meter reading results for device removal, the system
    checks whether meter reading orders still exist for after the removal
    date as the removal invalidates (and therefore deletes) these orders.
    You must however ascertain whether these future meter reading orders
    belong to the previous installation or (if the meter reading result was
    entered after removal but the device has already been installed in a
    new installation) whether they were created after the removal for the
    new installation.
    In the case, the meter reading document for move-out is not allocated
    to an installation. Therefore, it is not possible to check whether
    future meter reading order &v2& belongs to the previous installation or
    to the new installation.

    System Response

    The process is terminated.

    How to fix this error?

    Check the data constellation
    Delete the future meter reading orders

    As long as the deleted future meter reading orders belonged to the new
    installation, create them again.
