Viewing Fines and Penalties for a Specific Account (Fines and Penalties Screen)Last Revision: April 20, 2004 |
Information about fines and penalties charged to an account can be displayed on the Fines and Penalties screen. These are charges other than late fees and NSF fees.
Double-click Account Status on the Main Menu or select Account Status on the Go To list.
The Account Status screen will appear, showing the Escrow Payment screen.
Click the Fines and Penalties tab.
If you are carrying an account number from another screen (or from the Escrow Payment tab), it will appear in the Account No field along with the Year. If not, then enter a number in the space provided and press F8. If you would like a different number, press F7, enter the new number, then press F8.
Notes: If you do not know the account number, select Account Search in the Go To list. For more information, see Searching for an Account. Write down or copy the account number, then enter it into the Fines and Penalties screen.
If you only want to view the fines for a particular tax unit, enter the unit number into the Tax Unit field beside the Year field on top of the screen before pressing F8. Otherwise, all fines will be shown.
