Receipts Tab - Budget Billing Plan Suspension

The Budget Billing Plan Suspension section allows the organization to define whether a credit balance should remove the account from a budget billing plan. Some utilities allow the customer to pay their true charges rather than their budget when the customer has a credit at the end of their plan. This generally occurs only if the plan season ends in the off cycle for the commodity.

  1. The Suspend Plan If Account Has Credit Balance flag, if selected, will suspend budget billing for all accounts that are put in an overpayment situation when payments are posted.
  2. The Plan Suspension Reason control is enabled and required if the Suspend Plan If Account Has Credit Balance flag is selected. This will be the reason supplied when a plan is suspended. The options come from Validation Set 257, Budget Bill Inactive Reason.
  3. The Suspend After Month/Day control is enabled and required if the Suspend Plan If Account Has Credit Balance flag is selected. This is the first date that suspension can occur.
