• Key Concepts: 
  Best-rate billing is a feature of the IS-U-BI Contract Billing component of SAP. It allows customers to be billed at the best rate available for their usage, based on their contract terms. This ensures that customers are not overcharged for their usage and that they are billed at the most cost-effective rate. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use best-rate billing, customers must first set up a contract with their supplier. This contract should include the terms of the customer's usage, such as the amount of energy they will use and the rate they will be charged for it. Once this is done, the customer can then set up best-rate billing in SAP. This will allow SAP to automatically calculate the best rate for each customer's usage and bill them accordingly. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When setting up a contract with a supplier, it is important to ensure that all terms are clearly stated and agreed upon. This will help to ensure that customers are billed correctly and at the most cost-effective rate. Additionally, it is important to regularly review contracts to ensure that they are still valid and up-to-date.
