Setting Up Collection Class Overdue Rules

Collection class overdue rules contain algorithms that impact accounts associated with a given collection class, division and currency code are managed. Open Admin > Credit & Collection > Collection Class Overdue Rules > Add to set up collection class overdue rules.

Description of Page

Enter the Collection Class, CIS Division and Currency Code to which the rules apply.

The Algorithms grid contains algorithms that control important functions. You must define the following for each algorithm:

  • Specify the algorithm's System Event (see the following table for a description of all possible events).
  • Specify the Algorithm to be executed when the System Event executes. Set the Sequence to 10 unless you have a System Event that has multiple Algorithms. In this case, you need to tell the system the Sequence in which they should execute.

    The following table describes each System Event.

System Event

Optional / Required

Description

Bill-Based Payment Arrangement

Optional - only specified if your implementation uses bill-oriented payment arrangements

This algorithm is executed to handle the creation, breaking and canceling of a Bill-Oriented Payment Arrangements.

Overdue Monitor Rule

Required

This algorithm is invoked by the Overdue Monitor to analyze an account's debt. Refer to How Does The Overdue Monitor Work for the details.

If you have multiple rules (and therefore multiple algorithms), please take care when assigning the sequence number, as the Overdue Monitor will invoke these rules in sequence order.

Write Off Bill

Option - only specified if your implementation writes-off bills

This algorithm is executed to handle the write-off and write-off reversal of a bill. Refer to Writing Off Bills.
