Invoicing - Enhanced Fee Formula for Manual Invoices

  1. What: Fire Departments can create an invoice line item based on occupancy data without enabling "Automate" for the invoice.

  2. Why: This update allows users to apply the Fee Formula based on occupancy data for manual invoice line items.

  3. How:
    1. Occupancy Data Placeholders: When using the Fee Formula, the following occupancy fields are available to use:
      1. Building Area Square Feet
      2. Number of Common Areas
      3. Number of Fire Pumps
      4. Number of Units
      5. Special Discount
      6. Total Billable Area
    2. Line Item Pricing Calculation:
      1. With Service Address: When an invoice has a service address, the price will be calculated based on the formula using occupancy data.
      2. Without Service Address: If no service address is provided, the price will default to 0.
      3. Once added, line items can be edited or deleted. If the service address changes, the formula will only re-calculate if the item is removed and added again.
    3. Permit Payments:
      1. For CC/HH permits requiring payment, line items based on formulas (but not set to "Automatic") can now be selected.
      2. Calculate based on occupancy data: If applying for a permit that requires payment, the cost is calculated using occupancy data for formula-based items.
  1. Use Case: This update allows users to apply the Fee Formula based on occupancy data for manual invoice line items.
