Field notes
The intake distinguishes electricity, water, property rates, sanitation or refuse, and the whole account, then asks for readings, reading type, billed units, tariff, charges, and arrears. The page says its code reconciles readings against billed units while AI explains tariff steps and query issues. It also notes that users may need to find their municipality's own by-law and tariff table; the report-language selector offers 20 choices.
