Calculating whether to add a fee

You can use an AddOnCondition formula to calculate whether a fee is added to an application. For example, you could write a formula that adds an extra fee to any special event that will affect associated addresses, parcels, or properties.

AddOnCondition formulas use the oUseApp object (an instance of the Hansen.CDR.Use.iUseApplication class) to set AddOnCondition to either True or False.

You can also use properties and methods of the Fee object in your formula. For example, you might want to specify the fee types that the formula applies to. To access fee properties, select the Fee node under UseSignature in the Methods and Properties tree. You must also use the AssociatedRecordType node to indicate the type of record (AssociatedRecordType.Fee).

Examples

This formula adds an item if the declared value recorded in the application is greater than $250,000:


AddOnCondition = False
If (oUseApp.DeclaredValuation > 250000) Then
  AddOnCondition = True
End If

This formula adds an item if the application is for an educational institute:


AddOnCondition = False
If (oUseApp.OccupancyType.Code.ToUpper = "EDUCATIONAL") Then
  AddOnCondition = True
End If

This formula adds an item if the application is for a new construction:


AddOnCondition = False
If (oUseApp.WorkType.Code.ToUpper = "NEW") Then
  AddOnCondition = True
End if
