Bill information

Summary tab

At the top of the Summary tab, under Status, Infor Public Sector provides a summary of the key bill information, including the bill's paid status, the billing period dates, the unpaid principal amount, and the total amount due.

Under Line Item Amounts, Infor Public Sector shows the total amounts of the new line items for the bill. These are static amounts that don't change as further transactions, such as penalties, payments, or adjustments, take place against the bill. New payments, penalties, and adjustments are reflected in the fields under Bill Balances on the Bill tab.

• The Principal field shows the total amount of new principal line items on the bill. This is the default category. Line item amounts that don't fall into any other category are considered principal charges. The value that is displayed here is stored in the Bill.PrincipalTotalAmount property.
• The Discount field shows the total amount of new discount credit line items on the bill. You can identify one-off line items as discounts by selecting Discount from the Type list in Line Item Setup. This value is stored in the Bill.DiscountAmount property.

  Early payment discounts that have been applied to prior bills are not included in the discount amount for the current bill, even though the early payment discount is a line item on this bill. The early payment discount is a credit toward an earlier bill. To avoid incorrectly reducing the sum of the line item charges on the current bill, the amount is excluded from this section

• The Penalty field shows the total amount of new penalty charge line items on the bill. Penalty line items are defined using the Penalty node in Line Item Setup. This value is stored in the Bill.PenaltyAmount property.
• The Adjustments field shows the total of new debit and credit adjustment line items on the bill. Adjustment line items are defined using the Adjustment node in Line Item Setup. This value is stored in the Bill.AdjustmentAmount property.
• The Payments field shows the total amount of new payment line items on the bill. Payment line items are defined using the Payment node in Line Item Setup. This value is stored in the Bill.PaymentAmount property
• The Deposit field shows the total of new deposit line items on the bill. Deposit line items are defined using the Deposit node in Line Item Setup. This value is stored in the Bill.DepositAmount property.

Under Printed Amounts, Infor Public Sector shows the sum of all non-pending account transactions for the bill type at the time of posting, including new line items. Account activity that happens after the bill is posted is not included in the printed amounts. New account activity since the posted date and time will be included on the next bill for the account.

• The Current Balance field shows the total amount of charges for the bill type for the account that are not past their due dates.
  Note: The current balance is not the sum of all new charges, or new principal charges as of this bill. If the bill is dated in the past and is already past due, then newly billed principal charges will be included in the past due balance.
• The Past Due Balance field shows the total amount of charges for the bill type for the account that are past their due dates.
• The Penalty Balance field shows the total amount of penalties for the bill type for the account.
• The Adjustment Balance field shows the total amount of adjustments that have been billed (meaning that associated line items have been created) for the bill type for the account. These adjustments must not be pending or reversed.
• The Overpayment Balance field shows the total amount of overpayment credits for the bill type for the account.
• The Deposit Balance field shows the total amount of deposit credits for the bill type for the account.
• The Bill Amount field shows the sum of the values above. The amount is calculated dynamically when you load the bill. The Bill.BillAmount property is not used to populate this field.

Bill tab

On the Bill tab, under Bill Balances, Infor Public Sector shows the run-time balances of the line items on this bill. The fields are arranged in a matrix, with the rows representing principal, penalty, deposit, and total balances. For each of these rows, the columns represent the amounts assessed and rebated, the totals of any adjustments and payments, and the outstanding amount.
