MRO and Meter Read report and reconciliation

Hi,

I am creating Meter read orders for all MRU's in a portion and need to reconcile the number of orders created and after the read results have been received, i again need to check for how many orders reads have been received and how many are still open.

What is the standard way of doing this. I am aware of using EABL and EABLG. Will again need to understand what is a better way.

Thanks,
