Target Processing Time & Bill Pay Legal Entity
You can find the information below in the “Customer Info” area.
The Target Processing Time defines the standard processing time for Live bills. The values take into account only business days, and are defined as follows:
- 3 days Processing Time for Pre Pay customers
- 5 days Processing Time for Post Pay customers
The Bill to Legal Entity is defined as:
- “Single” if the billing entity is the organization.
- “Multiple” if the bills for UBM need to go to multiple organizations.
Payment Preference
In the Customer Info area, if you have the Bill Pay Entitlement turned On, then a “Bill Payment” category is visible with a “Payment Preference” option.
This sets a general rule for what value will be paid out for each bill:
- Current Charges: paying the bill total value with no Past Due Amount.
- Total Amount Due: paying the bill total and the Past Due Amount.
The setting is reflected in the Bill Details area for each bill through an icon near the category that is being paid out.
