Track how much utility cost you're actually recovering

After each billing cycle closes, WebRun opens Conservice, pulls the total provider utility cost and the total resident billback for every property, calculates each property's cost recovery ratio, logs it to a running Google Sheet, and posts a ranked Slack report so you can see which properties are under target before the next cycle starts.

In short

How do I track my utility cost recovery ratio across properties?

After each billing cycle closes, WebRun pulls every property's total provider utility cost and total resident billback from Conservice, calculates the cost recovery ratio for each, and logs it to Google Sheets alongside the prior period. A ranked Slack report then shows which properties are under target, so a slipping recovery ratio gets caught early.

  • Under recovering properties surface right after the cycle closes, not next quarter
  • Every property's ratio is tracked period over period automatically
  • Finance gets a ranked report instead of building one from raw exports

Questions, answered

How is the recovery ratio calculated?

It divides each property's total resident billback by its total provider utility cost for the period, so a ratio under 100 percent means the property recovered less than it paid.

Will it change billing rates to fix a low ratio?

No. WebRun only reports the ratio. Any change to billing rates or allocation methods is a decision your team makes and enters separately.

Can I see how a property trended over time?

Yes. Each period's ratio is added as a new row in Google Sheets alongside the prior period, so a running trend builds automatically.
