The batch process that extracts bill information reads all bill
routing records in a given run number that are marked with its batch
control ID
The base package example of this process (known by the batch control
ID of POSTROUT) simply
calls the extract algorithm on the routing record's route type to
format the information placed onto the flat file. Refer to Bill
Route Types Control The Information On Bills for more information.
Note:
If your software doesn't support online bill
images. The algorithm that formats bill extract records that's
plugged in on
bill route type serves two purposes: 1) it interacts with the online bill display
algorithm plugged into to the installation record to support online
images of a bill, and 2) it interacts with the background process
to support printing your bills in batch. If your bill print software
does not support the rendering of bill images real time, there is
no need to create an extract algorithm. Rather, you should simply
develop your own download process that works with your bill print
software to print bills in batch (and then specify this batch process
on your bill route type).
