usage estimate
(1) A process in which Infor Public Sector
estimates usage on a meter if the reading can't be taken due to such things as a meter
malfunction, restricted meter access, or poor weather. Infor Public Sector estimates a reading based on formulas defined in a usage estimate
setup. (2) A process in which Infor Public Sector estimates the
resource usage and costs for a work order based on its tasks, such as a labor usage rate
that indicates the designation of the work crew and the estimated number of labor hours
required to complete a particular task. Infor Public Sector will
use the estimated usage rates defined in Activity Workflows to calculate the estimated cost
of the work order.
