If you make agreed visits for property owners, each record could retain the date, reading and a meter photo. The report would collect observations without mixing addresses. Owners would check the information before using it externally. A correction would preserve the earlier entry in the history with an explanatory note, helping ensure a changed value does not pass unnoticed in the record.
An illustrative example to adapt to your business. It does not represent a completed project in this municipality.
Does the system send readings directly to the municipality?
Only through an explicitly requested and validated process. The proposed journey first produces a private reading for review; it does not simulate integration with an existing municipal service.
How can a typing error be detected?
The photo and date allow comparison between the entered value and the observation. An unusual value can be flagged for human review before the completed report is confirmed.
