  • A base charge is the initial dollar amount assessed as part of the financial record. A financial will typically have a single base charge line item, but in may have more than one if a submission revision results in a fee change, or a periodic invoice has multiple fees applied

  • Adjustments are manual changes to the invoice balance applied by either an internal processor or an Accounts Receivable system. Adjustments can be positive in value if additional money is owned, or negative in value if less money is owed

  • Late fees are typically only applied by central Account Receivable systems , and are calculated as a percentage of the invoice total , and assessed a number of days after the invoice was created if there is an outstanding balance.

Payment of fees can made by the external user either online or by mail.

  • When paying online, the user will be routed to the third-party processor for payment. Multiple Invoices can be paid at once or at the individual level.

  • When paying by mail, the user will only be able to pay at the individual invoice level and will be directed to a payment voucher which can be printed, completed. and mailed in.
