Resource Reading
Resource Reading records a meter reading of a resource on a date, with the vendor invoice and price it was billed at.
What it is for
The rule people get wrong: nothing reads these readings today, and the screen is not on any menu. Meter readings for maintenance are kept in Service and maintenance.

How to configure it
The screen allows import, so a long list can be loaded from a file instead of typed. Which fields are required, greyed, hidden or pre-filled for a company is set on Organizational Structure Setting, in its Default Parameters grid, and one user can differ through User Parameter Value.

If something looks wrong
- Save refuses because the code already exists. Codes are unique. Open the existing record from the list instead, or pick another code.
