The Final Billing System menu contains commands used to enter and post final bills for customers independently of regular billing transactions. The Final Billing System looks and works similar to regular billing except that the final billing transactions are maintained in the Final Billing Transaction file not the Billing Transaction file. In addition, the Final Billing System uses the customer's Final Billing Date as the Service To Date.
Notes:
Other methods for entering final customer bills:
Enter customer final bills during Bill Entry.
Note: Final bills entered in this routine are maintained in the Billing Transaction file and will be posted with regular bills when you run the Billing Post.
Enter customer final bills during the Final Customer Wizard. The Wizard takes you through the steps of entering the final billing information, printing a journal, printing a final billing statement for the customer and posting the final bill to the customer.
Note: Using the wizard, you must maintain a new customer to replace the old customer whose service is being terminated.
