Charge Type

The Charge Type tab on the Process Policy form is used to associate a Sender Name with a particular Charge Type. This record is used to determine the Charge Types to which employees assigned to this policy can post events. When an employee posts an event with a Charge Type defined in this tab, the system checks to see if the Charge Type’s Sender Name matches the Sender Name on the Charge Element form. If the Sender Names do not match, the employee cannot post the event.

The Charge Types in the Process Policy determine which charge elements will display in the Charge Element quick link when an employee posts an event.

If an employee’s Process Policy has Charge Type records, the Charge Element quick link will only display charge elements with the same Sender Name as the Charge Types in the Process Policy.

If an employee’s Process Policy does not have any Charge Type records, then the Charge Element quick link will display all available charge elements regardless of their Sender Name.

If an employee is not assigned a Process Policy, then the Charge Element quick link will not display any charge elements.
