Summary

The Fee Unit Type Maintenance window is used to define what units will be used to assess taxes. A fee unit type is a user-defined unit used to compute fee totals.

Step by Step

1    View existing fee unit types.

• Open the Fee Unit Type Maintenance window (BT> Maintenance> Fee Unit Type).
• The left section of the window will display all of the fee unit types that have been created in the application. Select a fee unit type in the left section of the window and the information attached to that fee unit type will populate in the Maintenance section on the right.
• Highlight a fee unit type and press DELETE or click the Delete icon if you would like to delete a fee unit type.
  • You cannot delete a fee unit type that is attached to a fee (BT> Maintenance> Fee Selection window> Fee Unit Type field). If you try to delete a fee unit type that is attached to a fee, an information window will open displaying the fee that the fee unit type is attached to.
• Press INSERT or click the Create icon if you would like to create a new fee unit type. This will create a new line item in the left side of the window and the fields in the Maintenance section on the right will be enabled to enter the fee unit type information.

2    Create or edit a fee code.

• The Type field is used to identify a unique fee unit type. The fee unit type can be up to 20 characters long.
  • This is the only required field in the window. All other fields are optional.
  • You will not be able to edit an existing fee unit type field once that fee unit type has been saved.
• The Description field is used to enter a description of the fee unit type. The fee unit type description can be up to 60 characters long.
• Press ENTER or click the Save icon to save the infraction type.
