MLC not finding parcels that were not taxed recently



Description of Issue

MLC program displays parcel not found when the parcel was not billed in the current collection year.

Municipal Lien Certificate not selecting a prior year parcel.



Context
  • Munis 2019.1 and up

  • Massachusetts Tax

  • MA Tax

  • Municipal Lien Certificate

  • MLC

Cause

The parcel was not billed in the current collection year.



Resolution

Development is currently researching the issue.

As a workaround, alternative means of printing an MLC should be pursued. A manual MLC can be produced using a Word template as one example, outside of utilizing any Munis programming. A secondary workaround exists that involves changing the current collection year in Tax Settings temporarily to allow the parcel to select. Please note that changes to the current collection year have implications throughout the tax billing modules and should be done only in a very controlled manner and as a last resort. Please contact Munis tax Support with any questions.
