External Release Notes

What is the new feature?

We enhanced the ability for a COVID Billing Fee to be applied on a monthly only basis.

Why did we do that?

This enhancement will allow the configuration to apply the COVID Billing once a month as opposed to the default (per accounting period).

 

1.      We added a Config Option to manage this [System Settings Property]

  • If the UseMonthlyCovidBilling property is set to False [default]the "Bill Monthly" checkbox on Customer > Billing Setup > Covid Billing will be unchecked. This means, for each accounting period, the COVID Fee will automatically apply to a uniquely placed employee. If there are multiple assignments within a customer, then only one fee applies.
  • If True, the "Bill Monthly" checkbox on Customer > Billing Setup > Covid Billing will be checked. This means the COVID Billing fee will only occur once in the month. 

2.      We added the Customer Billing Setup checkbox Bill Monthly to indicate the COVID Billing only applies once a month [effective from the time of configuration].

  • If the checkbox is Not checked [default], for each accounting period, the COVID Fee will automatically apply to a uniquely placed employee (if multiple assignments exist within a customer, then only one fee applies)
  • If Checked, the logic is to charge the fee once per month; if a uniquely placed employee has already paid the COVID fee in that month based on the week worked date, then the system will not auto-apply it again in that month.
