BCU2 - Create Billable Charge

This process creates a billable charge and billable charge lines (shown in the yellow section of the following ERD) for all BC upload records in the Pending state.

The figure illustrates how the system creates billable charges and other related entities using the corresponding billable charge upload staging records.

If the billable charge's contract is Closed, it will Reactivate it so that the billable charges will be swept onto the next bill produced for the account.

Note: This process will override the values of the various switches referenced on bill charge upload staging line if the respective contract's contract type has an override value for the line's billable charge line type. Refer to Contract Type - Billable Charge Overrides for more information.

The figure indicates that the system refers the contract type in order to override the values on the billable charge line.

Any errors detected during this process are written to the Billable Charge Upload Exception table. You can fix errors using BC Upload Staging page (don't forget to change the record's status back to Pending).
