A bill is a single processed utility document containing dates, charges, and usage. The Nectar API calls this a document. See glossary — bill and glossary — document.
Navigate to Data Inventory > Bills to see all processed utility bills across your portfolio. See also: Glossary — Bill for full field definitions, and Data Quality — Issues for resolving data quality issues.

​
Table columns

The bills table displays the following columns by default: You can customize visible columns by clicking the Columns button above the table.

​
Filtering

Use the filter bar above the table to narrow results. Available filters include:
  • Date range — Filter bills to a specific billing period
  • Site — Show bills for one or more sites
  • Utility type — Filter by electricity, gas, water, or other commodity types
  • Connection — Show bills from a specific connection
  • Status — Filter by processing status
  • Street, Zipcode, Country — Find bills by location. These search the bill’s service address along with the meters and sites the bill covers. See Location filters for how related-record search and the Contains/Is match modes work.
Filters can be combined. Active filters appear as chips that can be individually removed.

​
Sorting

Click any column header to sort the table by that column. Click again to toggle between ascending and descending order. The current sort direction is indicated by an arrow icon in the column header.

​
Bulk actions

Select one or more rows using the checkboxes on the left side of the table to reveal the bulk actions toolbar. The selection persists across pages of results, so you can build up a set across filtered views before acting.
There’s no bulk reassign for bills. If you need to move a bill onto a different account or meter, open the bill and use the reassign actions on the bill detail page. To move historical bills from an email connection onto an online connection in one shot, see Switching between email and online connections.

​
Opening a bill

Click any row in the table to open a slide-out Bill Sheet with a quick preview of the bill’s key details. From the sheet, click View full detail to navigate to the bill detail page. Bills with revised or revising usage show a banner in the detail view (amber for superseded usage on this bill; blue when this bill revises earlier usage). See Bill detail for linking, unlinking, and comparing documents.

Each issue has a specific type and guided resolution steps. Open the bill to see the issues and resolve them, or use the Data Quality > Issues triage inbox. See Glossary — Data quality issue.
