Abatement Entry Shows Abated Fee as a Refund

Description of Issue
  • When abating a bill in full and selecting the checkbox to Adjust of fees, the abated fees are erroneously shown as a refund.

  • Posted Abatement Report showing abated fees as a refund.

Context
  • Property Tax Billing

  • Abatement Entry (txabtent)

  • Posted Abatements Report (txpabtrp)

Cause

Abating a bill in full and adjusting off the fees results in the fee amounts being mistakenly displayed as a refund.

Resolution

Development is currently researching this issue. There is currently no workaround, but this is a display issue only in Abatement Entry and the Posted Abatements Report programs. The bill will show correctly in Bill Inquiry and will not pull into Bill Refund Processing.
