<p class=MsoNormal>The answer to your question depends entirely on whether you
intend to keep the Device installed for any period of time, especially if
there's been any recorded consumption. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>You can technically 'reverse' a Device Installation as long
as it has been uninstalled from a Billing point of view first. And if you carry
out the Billing Removal for the same date as it was installed then the database
will be completely cleared of any record about that Device having been
installed at all. <o:p></o:p></p>

<div>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>

<div>
<p class=MsoNormal>Of course, if you have recorded meter reads you'll either
have to reverse them if you intend to do that or if you intend to keep them
then you'll have to post a Removal read for all of the registers of the meter
as part of the removal or before. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Note that the XY_AUTO-AUTO_ZW parameter table in the second
FM can be used to pass through Removal reads up front. You have to provide the
right reads for the right register numbers though. <o:p></o:p></p>

The standard IS-U Methods were and still are rubbish (preumse you are
using IS-U?) so back in 2003 in 4.72 we wrote our own to call FMs
ISU_O_WORKLIST_INSTALL_OPEN and ISU_S_WORKLIST_INSTALL with NO_DIALOG set to
'X' and created our own ZDEVICE.FullRemoval method using a BAPIRET2 table to
turn into an Application Log.<br>
<br>
ECC 6 didn't give us anything better so we've stuck with our custom solution.<br>

I am on ECC 6.0 and trying to execute a workflow step in background that will
