You view and manage code enforcement fees and payments associated with a case on the Fees and Payments page in the case details.

Attachments provide supporting documentation needed by agency staff when processing cases. See the section "Security Details for Working with Code Enforcement Attachments" for information about setting up security for agency staff and responsible parties with access to manage attachments.

You can manage attachments associated with a transaction on different pages in Oracle Permitting and Licensing. Here’s a look at some of the areas that include attachment functionality:

  • The Attachments page in the transaction or application detail pages, including pages for permits, planning applications, cases, business licenses, and contractor licenses.

  • The Workflow page in the transaction detail pages.

  • Inspection Detail and Checklist pages in the Inspector Application for mobile devices.

  • New Violation and Inspection pages in Oracle Municipal Code Officer.

Recipients of transaction communications containing web forms can upload files when requested. You can also manage documents as part of the plan review process.

These are all sources of attachments that you’ll find associated with a transaction on the Attachments page.
