# Analyse an electricity bill

> Review extracted values before using them in the energy profile.

**Open:** the quote's energy-profile area and **Electricity bill**.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Choose the correct bill">
    Upload the customer's bill through the supported attachment flow. If several bills are available, use **Choose electricity bill** to select the intended one.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Run the assessment">
    Choose **Assess bill with ArgonixIntelligence**. Wait for **Review bill assessment**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Check each value">
    Compare the retailer, billing period, usage, rates, supply charge, export credit and any site/meter details against the actual bill. Read the evidence and assumption notes.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Apply the reviewed values">
    Use the offered controls to fill empty fields or apply selected values. Check an existing value before replacing it. Confirm site details separately before attaching them to the customer.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Confirm the savings inputs">
    Review the resulting energy profile and savings assumptions. A successful extraction is not the same as confirmed inputs.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Common errors to catch

| Check            | Why it matters                                                          |
| ---------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Billing days     | A quarterly bill should not be treated as a monthly amount              |
| Units            | Cents per kWh and dollars per kWh differ by a factor of 100             |
| Supply charge    | This is a daily fixed charge, not a usage rate                          |
| Multiple tariffs | Peak, shoulder and off-peak should not be flattened without explanation |
| Grid imports     | Purchased electricity excludes solar consumed at the property           |
| Feed-in tariff   | Export credit is not the same as the import rate                        |
| Site identity    | A billing address may differ from the installation address              |

Manual entry remains available if the bill is unreadable or unsupported. Use source-backed values and label estimates honestly. Read [savings assumptions](/quoting/savings) before presenting the result.

## ArgonixIntelligence in this workflow

This is the bill-analysis tool itself. Its job is to extract and explain likely values. You decide which reviewed values to apply.
