Meter Reading

This is super simple real life example about how organization typically starts to utilize Power Platform.

Customer have several sites. Each site contains several buildings and each building contains several technical meters (not yet connected into the network).

Engineers walk through monthly all these meters and write down readings. They used to do this with pen and paper. After all meter was read, engineers copied readings in to one shared Excel sheet.

Solution

We built mobile Power Apps for the engineers.

  • Engineer home site is asked and stored when the engineer opens the app for the first time -> Only home site buildings are shown on the building list
  • Engineers see realtime information about how many meters hasn’t read yet on the selected month and where those meters are located
  • When an engineer types meter reading, s/he see what the reading was last time
