Description

Days to avoid on new accounts

Enter the number of days the delinquency control module will grace new owners when calculating late fees.  Based on the number entered, the delinquency processing module will ignore accounts where the account Resident Start date is within the time frame for the late fee date minus this entered number.  Example: If the entered number is 30 and the late fee date is 12/31/07, if an owner Resident Start date is 12/15/07, the program will ignore the owner, because any owners added between 12/1/07 and 12/31/07 are exempt from the late fee process.

Monthly Definition

Not Defined: Unused restrictions for calculations

Post based on month charges: When selected, the delinquency control module will only calculate late fees based on the current month charges, not the entire balance of the account.

Ignore month charges: Do not include any charges for the month when calculating account balances.

Post Late Fee to Lien
