Resolution

The purpose of the Selective Bill Print option is to print Supplemental billing changes after the the Create and Generate Accounts Receivable process. It's suggested to purge these records once bills have been printed so that when the next subsequent bill run is processed, only those new bill changes will exist in the Choose Bills screen that haven't been reprinted yet.

  2. Click Selective Print or Selective Bill Print (title slightly varies by program)

  3. Click Define

  4. Complete the required fields and click Accept

  5. Click Select. The Bills Selected box will increment for the count of records selected
