Before you start

  • The building, with a system under it in Sites & Assets. A main meter will do.

Steps

  1. Step 1: Open Upload

    Under Data, choose Upload. The Upload tab opens, with Manual Data Entry at the top.

    The top of the Data Upload page with the Manual Data Entry card, ready for a building to be chosen.
  2. Step 2: Enter a month’s figures

    Choose the building and the month, then type the energy used in kWh, and water and gas if you have them. Add a note saying where each figure came from, such as the bill. Add row adds another month; Save Entries stores them.

    Manual Data Entry with Northgate Warehouse chosen and one row for August 2026: 38,400 kWh, with the note August utility bill.

What you’ll see

  • The monthly figures count towards the building on Overview and Locations.
  • Each entry keeps its note, so anyone checking a figure can find the bill it came from.

Troubleshooting

The form says the building has no asset yet.
Add a system to the building in Sites & Assets, for example its main meter, then come back.
I have readings every few minutes, not monthly bills.
Connect the meter or monitor instead. Hand entry is for monthly figures.
