Details

  • Type (e.g. hot water), serial number and starting reading.
  • Unit price (e.g. HUF/m³, optional): if set, each reading's cost is calculated as consumption × unit price.
  • Location / note so you know which meter it is.

Reading periods

Use Hozzáadás (Add) to set a period: start and end date, frequency in months and a description (e.g. “Monthly hot water reading”). This tells you when the next reading is due.

If the meter doesn't appear after saving

The table shows type, serial number, starting value, periods, last and next reading. If it stays empty, check the required fields and try again.
