Meter Manufacturer File Import Process
A Meter Manufacturer File is provided to the utility. The file contains meter number/serial number 
combinations. The Meter Manufacturer File must be imported into Command Center before meters 
are deployed.
The Meter Manufacturer Data screen allows the user to import an XML or CSV file supplied by the 
meter manufacturer so the utility does not have to key in meters and endpoints by hand.
1. Click Operations > Import > Meter Manufacturer Data to display the Import Meter 
Manufacturer Data screen.
 Figure 4 - 1. Import Meter Manufacturer Data
2. Click the Browse button to navigate to, and select, a file that was sent by the meter 
manufacturer.
3. Click the Save button to import the file into the database.
The Meter Manufacturer Data Import (Upload Complete) window will appear displaying the Error 
Summary (if applicable) and Successful Entries.
 Figure 4 - 2. Upload Complete Window
NOTE: NOTE: Any entries under Error Summary will be red text. The usual reason for an entry under 
Errors is that the endpoint already exists in the system. If file parsing errors or other file-related errors 
occur, contact the meter manufacturer that supplied the file.
4. Successful entries will be added to inventory and will be displayed on the dashboard as 
Inventory status.
