;; Notes on Accounts Receivable version 1.1
;;
;; These notes exist in the help frames of the UA - User Assistance
;;Menu - Version 1.1
;;
;;A/R MANAGER ACTION ITEMS
;;
;;Only a few 'action items' need to be accomplished by the A/R Manager.
;;These are 'MANDATORY ACTION ITEMS'.
;;
;;**1** "Parent Satellite Parameters" "Start & Stop Dates."
;;
;;WHEN ADDING NEW SATELLITES
;;
;;The A/R manager must edit the "Parent Satellite Parameters" file
;;and enter appropriate Start and Stop Dates for the satellites. This
;;affects which parent facility bills are loaded and/or reloaded into
;;from Third Party Billing.
;;
;;**2** "Site Parameter File" "Accept 3P Bills"
;;
;;The Site Parameter file needs to be reviewed by the A/R Manager to
;;insure the proper setting of this field.
;;
;;IMPORTANT NOTE: Bills will NOT come over from Third Party if this
;;parameter is not set to 'YES'.
;;
;;**3** "BILL FILE ERROR SCAN"
;;
;;A new menu option has been added on the A/R manager's menu called
;;Bill File Error Scan. This option will examine all bills in the
;;A/R Bill File for the selected date range, looking for various
;;error conditions including small balance, negative balance, and 3P
;;mis-matches. New reports have been added to report on the various
;;error conditions.
;;
;;This option should be run after the installation of version 1.1 and
;;then at periodic intervals to insure proper rollbacks.
;;
;;**4** Enable 3P Rollback from Posting Menus.
;;
;;Rollback to 3P from the posting menus has been added. A new Site
;;parameter has been added called 'Roll Over During Posting'. The
;;choices are 'Yes', 'No', and 'Ask'. If answered 'Ask', users will be
;;asked if they want to roll over during posting. If answered 'yes'
;;A/R Bills posted to a zero balance will immediately roll over to
;;Third Party Billing. If answered 'no', roll over will have to be
;;accomplished by the 'Roll Back Bills to 3-Party' menu option.
;;
;;**5** Account Statements Menu option
;;
;;A new menu option has been added to generate monthly statements for
;;patient or non-beneficiary accounts. Accounts must be flagged with
;;the 'Flag Accounts' option before statements will be generated.
;;When run the first time, the option will look back 30 days for all
;;flagged accounts and list the beginning balance, all transactions
;;for the 30 day time period, and the ending account balance. If the
;;'Print Account Statements' option is run on following days, the
;;account will not be included again until 30 days have passed since
;;the last statement.
;;
