Utilities · SAP IS-U
Billing, dunning and move-in tests in SAP IS-U need whole chains of master data: business partner, contract account, contract, installation, premise and meter readings. Synthesized copies those chains into test systems with every customer masked, bank details and consumption data included.
On SAP, we measure results on your own data in a 10-day validation.
Why utilities need it
01The data model
| Object | Main tables | Personal data to mask |
|---|---|---|
| Business partner | BUT000, BUT020, ADRC | Names, addresses, phone numbers and email |
| Bank details | BUT0BK | IBANs and account holders |
| Contract account | FKKVKP | Payment methods, dunning and correspondence data |
| Meter readings | EABL | Consumption linked to a household |
| Billing and print documents | ERCH, ERDK | Amounts and addresses on customer documents |
| Open items | DFKKOP | Payment history |
A starting point. Check the tables against your release and your own extensions.
NIS2
NIS2 lists energy and water among its highly critical sectors, and national laws now apply its cybersecurity rules to electricity, gas, district heating and water operators.

We've got you covered

SAP's industry solution for utilities, covering customer service, billing and invoicing, device management and contract accounting (FI-CA). On S/4HANA it continues as SAP S/4HANA Utilities.

Business partner tables such as BUT000 and ADRC, bank details in BUT0BK, contract accounts in FKKVKP, and documents that carry names and addresses. Meter readings in EABL are personal once linked to a household.

Yes. Choose company codes, regional structures or a sample of premises, and the chain from business partner to meter readings comes with each one.

No. Masking replaces names, addresses and bank details but keeps consumption, tariffs and amounts, so billing and dunning runs behave as they do in production.

NIS2 asks for cybersecurity risk management, including how systems are developed and maintained. Keeping real customers out of test systems reduces what a breach in non-production could expose. Your security team decides how it fits your measures.
