Bill Route Types Control The Information Merged Onto Bills

Every bill routing record references a Bill Route Type. The bill route type controls the following:

• It contains an algorithm that is responsible for extracting the information merged onto your bills. Algorithms of this type are called under the following scenarios:
  • The background process that interacts with your bill print software calls these algorithms.
  • If your bill print software has the ability to construct a real-time image of a bill, you can plug-in an Online Bill Image algorithm on the Installation Record. This type of algorithm will call the extract algorithm for an appropriate bill route type to extract the information that is merged onto the bill. Refer to Technical Implementation Of Online Bill Image for the details.
• It contains the ID of the background process responsible for interacting with your bill print software in batch.
