This chapter contains these topics:
This program works in conjunction with both the Estimated E.P. Generation and E.P. Billing Generation programs to estimate the recurring billings for expense participation.
A processing option for the generation programs requires that you run them in conjunction with the edit/update program. When the setup information is created in the Estimated E.P. Recurring Billing workfile (F1502W), the system automatically prints the Estimated E.P./R.B. Edit/Update report so you can preview the information with which the Recurring Billings Master file (F1502) can be updated.
Note:
You must first set up the DREAM Writer version for the edit/update program before you can set up and run the version of the generation program.After you run the generation program, you choose the Estimated E.P. Edit/Update program from the menu and run it again in update mode. In the Recurring Billings Master file, the system suspends the old bill code line and adds the new line. It also prints the report, which you can now use to review the setup information.
Note the following:
For the billing records in the Billings Generation Control Master file (F15011), the related Billing Period field is updated to B (Billed).
The generation type for estimated E.P. recurring billings is 6.
For an overview of expense participation, see Chapter 100, "Expense Participation Process" in this guide.
From the Real Estate Management System menu (G15), choose E.P. W/ Calc. Revisions.
From the E.P. W/ Calculation Revisions menu (G15231), choose Estimated E.P. Edit/Update.
When you choose the program from the menu, the system displays a DREAM Writer version list. From this screen, you can copy, change, or run a version of the program. For an overview of the DREAM Writer facility, see Appendix B, "DREAM Writer Overview" in this guide.
