Payment Arrangement Segmentation
If your organization allows customers to payoff outstanding debt using payment arrangements (e.g., current bill plus $X), you will need a new SA type for every debt class that can have a payment arrangement. If we assume you can have payment arrangements for both regulated and unregulated debt, then you'll need at least two more SA types (you may have more SA types if you need to segregate the payment arrangement receivable amount by utility type (or some other type)).

Notice the following about the new payment arrangement SA types:
• They have an interesting distribution code. This is because when funds are transferred to these types of service agreements, the system must debit a receivable (i.e., payment arrangement receivable).
• They use an interesting bill segment type - RECUR-AS. This bill segment type was set up to create recurring charges that stop when the customer no longer has a payoff balance.
• Each new SA type references the debt class whose debt it will pay off. We are intentionally linking the payment arrangement debt to the same debt class as the regulated debt from which it originates. This way, the C&C process will consider the arrangement debt as the same as regulated debt and therefore perform the regulated collection (which results in the severance of all regulated service agreements).
• The recurring charge control information is set up as defined.

Refer to the Description of Page under SA Type - Billing for the definition of the recurring charge attributes. Refer to Start Option Considerations For SA Types That Use Recurring Charges for how you can use Start Options to automatically populate a service agreement's recurring charge fields with appropriate values when service is started.
