How to Schedule a New Tariff Plan on FlexView

This guide walks you through the process of creating and scheduling a new tariff plan on FlexView using the updated Billing and Fee Settings feature on your Power Manager (PM) dashboard.

Access the PM Dashboard. Once logged into your PM dashboard, you'll notice the layout is mostly familiar. However, there are a few key updates we’ll highlight in this guide.

Key Update: Billing and Fee Settings

The old "Tariff and Billing" pane has been renamed "Billing and Fee Settings".

Clicking on it now reveals three tabs instead of two:

1. Tariff Plan (formerly Billing Plan)
2. Fees (new tab)
3. Meters

The Meters tab now includes additional tools such as:

• Change Tariff Plan
• Modify Disconnect Settings

This guide will focus on setting up a new tariff plan.

Steps to Set Up and Schedule a New Tariff Plan (Standard Tariff)

1. Navigate to the Billing and Fee Settings Pane
2. Click on the "Tariff Plan" tab
3. Select "New Tariff Plan"

1. Setup Stage

This stage remains unchanged from the previous version. Enter the plan name and basic setup parameters.

 

2. Tariff Terms Stage

Also unchanged. Here you define your rates (e.g., energy rates per kWh, and minimum account balance.)

 

3. Payout Stage (New)

This is where the key changes lie. You can now:

• Assign multiple payout accounts
• Choose whether each payout receives a percentage or a fixed naira amount

 

4. Confirmation Stage

Crosscheck all inputs:

• Plan name
• Tariff values
• Distribution to different payout accounts

Once you are confident the setup is correct, proceed to either:

• "Save Tariff Plan" to store it without applying yet
• "Save and Apply to Meters" to activate it immediately
