These meters were manually edited in the past. I am working on automating it. This is the error I get when I submit a meter reading via a REST call -
Here is the meter info -

The previously entered reading was 7742. The current instrument reading is 8680. Since the rollover is 8000 hours, I have to POST a 680 reading.

I am able to manually edit the reading. I am wondering how this can be overcome with a REST call.
The Rollover? checkbox overwrote the 7742 value. The REST call with "dorollover": "True" doesn't seem to be cutting it.

How do I force a rollover just like we can in the GUI manually as shown above.
