Add an Aggregation Field

Use the Aggregation Fields pane to add component values used to define a composite meter. This tab is only valid for composite meters.

About this task

This step is required to create composite meters. Composite meters track the total usage or charge amount and specify both aggregate and component views in a single meter definition.
Note: If you enter conflicting input values when you define your template, the associated template tabs are highlighted and an error shows for each set of conflicting input values. The error shows until the conflicts are resolved.

You can filter the list by using the Search field.

Procedure

  1. In Aggregation Fields, click Add Field.
  2. In Container Name, select the container type.
  3. In Field Name, select the field to add to the composite meter.
    Note: You can use DateTime fields as aggregation grouping fields in composite meter definitions. Use caution when mapping DateTime fields as grouping fields to avoid too many component values.
  4. Click Create.
