IS-U is SAP's business solution for the utility industry.
IS-U's accounting system for utility and service industries has been specially designed for the specific requirements of these sectors. By integrating IS-U utility industry with the neutral R/3 standard components and interfaces to external systems, SAP offers an integrated enterprise-wide solution for the utility industry's operational data processing.
The transaction volume of utilitiesUtilities support the execution of administrative tasks in an Automation Engine system (such as reorganizing and archiving the Automation Engine database). with several million customers, various types of utilities and perhaps billing on a monthly basis is mainly handled in background operation.
Examples:
AE is able to automate these background requirements. We developed a special type of background "mass processing" in order to optimally deal with huge data amounts.
Characteristics of mass processing:
One specific requirement is that a particular order must be kept (e.g. accounting must be finished before billing starts; both are mass processing runs).
Mass processing includes a dispatcher which generates parallel split jobs through the definition of parameters.
When scheduling mass processing, the dispatcher forms the master job of background processing. When it is processed, it generates a dynamic number of split jobs (the number depends on the defined parameter settings).
Controlling is handled by AE. Scheduling can be handled by AE or SAP.
