108 Estimated E.P. Generation

This chapter contains these topics:

This program lets you estimate the recurring billings for expense participation from a batch of calculations. It is based on the Expense Participation Billing Register (Calculation Details) file (F1538). The system creates the Estimated E.P. Recurring Billing workfile (F1502W). Note that the generation type for estimated E.P. recurring billings is 6.

The actual generation of this information involves both the Estimated E.P. Generation and Estimated E.P. Edit/Update programs.

  • A processing option for the generation program requires that you run it in conjunction with the edit/update program. When the F1502W workfile is created, the system automatically prints the Estimated E.P./R.B. Edit/Update report so that you can preview the information with which the Recurring Billings Master file (F1502) can be updated.

  • 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 for review.

For an overview of expense participation, see Chapter 96, "Expense Participation Process" in this guide.
