You can use this page to view all or selected bill segments linked to a bill. In addition, you can also perform certain maintenance functions on this page (see the details below).
Open and navigate to the Bill Segments tab to view this information.
If the bill has more than 25 bill segments and you don't use the hyperlinks in the bill segment grid on the Main tab to drill over to this information, the search criteria are intentionally left blank in order to avoid retrieving all bill segments (with the resultant slow response times). You must therefore use the Obligation Filter and the Status Filter to define the type of bill segments that should be retrieved. See the Description of page below for more information about this page's search criteria.
The Description of page that appears below simply describes the fields on this page. Refer to How To for a description of how to perform common maintenance functions.
Description of page
Bill Info contains a concatenation of important information about the bill (e.g., the bill date, its status, due date, ending balance, etc.).
Bill ID is the system-assigned unique identifier of the bill.
If the bill has more than 25 bill segments and you don't use the hyperlinks in the bill segment grid on the Main tab to drill over to this page, the Filters are intentionally left blank in order to avoid retrieving all bill segments (with the resultant slow response times). You must therefore use the Obligation Filter and the Status Filter to define the type of bill segments that should be retrieved.
The area beneath Bill Info provides you with options that control which bill segments appear in the grid. The following points describe the various options:
Use the Obligation Filter to define the types of obligations whose bill segments appear in the grid. The following options are available:
All. Use this option if you do not wish to restrict bill segments based on obligation attributes.
Obligation Type. Use this option to restrict bill segments to those whose obligations are linked to a given division and obligation type.
Use Status Filter to restrict the bill segments based on their status. The following options are available:
All. This option shows all bill segments regardless of status.
Refer to Bill Segment Lifecycle for the various status values.
Don't forget to click the search button after changing the filters.
The Select All / Clear All buttons are used to select bill segments if you plan on issuing any of the mass update actions at the bottom of the page. These buttons are enabled if either of the following conditions is true:
All bill segments that appear in the grid are in the Error, Freezable and/or Incomplete states.
All bill segments that appear in the grid are in the Frozen state
Refer to the description of the "mass update" actions below for more information.
100 bill segments at a time. Clicking Select All selects the first 100 bill segments in the grid. If more than 100 bill segments exist, you must select them in batches.
The grid that follows contains the bill segments that match your search criteria. The following information appears in the grid:
Select box. See the mass update description immediately above for conditions under which this checkbox can be used to select bill segments for mass update actions.
The Bill Segment column contains a concatenation of the bill segment's division, obligation type, status and bill period. The division and obligation type come from the bill segment's obligation. Click the hyperlink to transfer to Bill Segment - Main Information. On this page you can perform maintenance functions (e.g., cancel/rebill, delete, cancel, etc., depending on the segment's status) on the bill segment in question.
The Current Amount column contains the bill segment's effect on the obligation's current balance.
The Status shows the bill segment's status. Refer to Bill Segment Lifecycle for the possible values.
The Remarks column highlights special circumstances associated with the bill segment.
Rebill after completion appears if the bill segment is a rebill that was created after the bill was sent to the taxpayer. The financial impact of this bill segment appears as a "bill correction" on the next bill produced for the taxpayer.
Rebill prior completion appears if the bill segment is a rebill that was created before the bill was sent to the taxpayer.
Canceled after completion appears if the bill segment was canceled after the bill was sent to the taxpayer. The financial impact of this bill segment appears as a "bill correction" on the next bill produced for the taxpayer.
Canceled prior completion appears if the bill segment was canceled before the bill was sent to the taxpayer.
If the bill segment's status is Error, this column also contains the error message.
Rate Quantity and UOM columns are not used.
The Bill Segment ID is the system-assigned unique identifier of the bill segment.
This transaction has sophisticated logic that can be used to perform "mass updates" to the bill segments that appear in the grid (using the buttons at the bottom of the page). The following points describe these mass update actions:
