Summary
The Consumption Adjustment Report displays the leak and misread consumption adjustments that have been entered on customer accounts using the Adjustment Input Wizard (UB> Adjustments and Fees> Input> Adjustment). The consumption adjustments included on the report can be filtered by meter route or billing cycle of the UB customer account, and the meter read date, read period, and read year of the consumption adjustment.
