Oracle Billing Insight v7.0: PCBillSummary Job

You use the PCBillSummary job to generate a file with bill summary information for users who have successfully enrolled to use a payment consolidator. The file is provided to the payment consolidator. The output content and file format are determined by an XML template.

The summary file includes all active, enrolled accounts whose statement load date is in the time period specified in the job configuration. You can limit the bill summary to specific accounts only by creating a CSV file with the biller and account IDs and specifying the file name in the job configuration.

The job configuration also lets you choose to regenerate multiple bill summaries within a billing period, which lets you rerun the job if an error occurs. The PCBillSummary job only generates the bill summary for accounts that enrolled with a biller using the payment consolidator's site. The PCBillSummary job consists of the BillSummary task.

If an error occurs while generating a summary record, then the BillSummary task automatically sends an email notification to all administrators. This job also generates a log file, which is linked in the notification. For information about configuring an alert profile to narrow the list of administrators who receive email notifications from this and other payment consolidator jobs, see Creating Alert Profiles.
