• Key Concepts: 
  The exceptional time-of-use interface is a component of the IS-U-BI Contract Billing module in SAP. It allows users to define and manage different time-of-use (TOU) rates for electricity, gas, and water contracts. This allows customers to pay different rates depending on the time of day or season when they use the service. 
  
  How to Use It: 
  The exceptional time-of-use interface can be used to define different TOU rates for electricity, gas, and water contracts. This can be done by creating a TOU rate table and assigning it to a contract. The TOU rate table can then be used to define different rates for different times of day or seasons. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating a TOU rate table, it is important to consider the customer’s usage patterns and budget. This will help ensure that the customer is getting the best value for their money. Additionally, it is important to keep track of any changes in the TOU rate table as these can have an impact on the customer’s bill.
