New EnergyStar Portfolio Manager Meter Names Created by Envizi Sync are Too Long/Redundant - Remove Extraneous Information

When an Envizi ESPM sync creates new accounts in ESPM (ESPM meters), the target name includes a lot of extraneous information not in the Envizi Item Number/Account Number.

ESPM has a character limit of sixty for meter names, resulting in critical information being lost.  For example, an Account Number in Envizi might have this format.

(5-digit location code) - (utility name) - (meter name) - (account reference)

Envizi allows account names up to 100 characters, so there is already a chance that the counterpart created in ESPM might be truncated.  However, even if the Account Number is 60 characters or less, the greater issue is that Envizi adds the organization name and the account style to the ESPM meter name, neither of which are necessary.  The end result is a meter name in this format.

(org name) - (account style),(5-digit location code) - (utility name) - (meter name) - (account reference)

Due to character truncation, the meter number and account reference are entirely left out.  By contrast, the included information, such as the org name and account style, are redundant and unnecessary.

The reason this is a serious issue for us is that it makes it very difficult to locate specific data in ESPM at a later time, as multiple meters may look the same.  Auditing, in particular, could potentially be very time consuming.

I would like to make two recommendations to improve this situation.  

1. Do not include (org name) - (account style) in the newly created ESPM meter name.  This information is redundant and unnecessary.

2. Parse out and extract the (meter name) component of the Envizi Account Number, as is done with some data connectors.  This should eliminate the risk of exceeding the ESPM character limit, in most circumstances.
