What is hull metering instance in SAP IS-U-EIM - Enhancements for Intelligent Metering Systems?

SAP Term: hull metering instance

• Component: IS-U-EIM

• Component Name: Enhancements for Intelligent Metering Systems

• Description: The first metering instance that is created in an external market partner's system. "External" is always from the point of view of the meter operation service MOS. The MOS has the meter and parameterizes the registers according to the requirements of the market partner. The metering instance at the MOS therefore always refers to real devices at the customer. At a given time, the external market partner is informed that the customer has an intelligent metering device. The MOS then creates a hull metering instance to model this in the system. The market partner decides to apply a rate use-case to the device that is, to parameterize it. The market partner then takes the hull metering instance and executes a metering product change. This information is communicated to the MOS, who parameterizes the register. As of this point, the hull metering instance becomes a metering instance.
