User Interaction On Screen

  • Users can pay the total due amount that is set by default.

  • Or, users can also pay an advance amount or partial amount by changing the value in the payment amount field to a higher or lower value. If a partial amount is to be paid, then users need to provide a lower amount than the total due amount. If the advance amount is to be paid, users need to provide a higher amount than the total due amount.

  • Clicking on Collect Payment opens a confirmation popup to confirm if the amount entered is correct.

  • Clicking on Confirm navigates the user to the Payment Success screen. The user can download the receipt or share the receipt for the collected amount.

  • Users can also print mini receipts with the help of Bluetooth thermal printers by selecting the Print mini receipt option.

Logic Implemented For Advance

billing-service/demand/_search API is used to calculate the advance amount for the current bill. The advance amount is fetched from the logic - if taxHeadMasterCode is 'WS_ADVANCE_CARRYFORWARD'. This has two properties - collection amount and tax amount. The tax amount is the advance amount that is added to the system and the collection amount is the amount utilised from the total advance amount. We can get the current advance from the taxAmount - collectionAmount.

Logic Implemented For Time Penalty

ws-calculator/waterCalculator/_getPenaltyDetails API is used to calculate the Time Penalty amount. The time penalty amount is fetched from the logic - if taxHeadMasterCode is'WS_TIME_PENALTY'. The time penalty amount is retrieved from the tax amount property of the latest demand.

The due date is calculated by adding the billexpirtyDate days to the demand generation date.

If the due date is crossed, billing-service/demand/_search API gives the Time Penalty applied.

Logic Implemented For First Demand Penalty

billing-service/demand/_search API gives the Normal Penalty. The Penalty placeholder in the bill details is visible if it is the first demand and has the taxHeadMasterCode as 10201.

Logic Implemented For Arrears Breakup

The arrears are broken into 'BL_(TaxHeadCode)' fetched from Bill Details-->Bill Account Details --> Tax Head Code. The amount of particular arrears is similar to the Bill Details--> Amount from the Fetch Bill API.

(For instance, if there are two bills with tax head codes is 10101 and 10102, then arrears break up is represented as BL_10101(Water Charges) with the corresponding amount and BL_10102(Water Charges-Arrears) with the corresponding amount).

Note:

  • The “Penalty” details displayed under “Bill Details“ section is displayed only if the config flag “Penalty enabled” is set as true. If it is set as false, then the penalty details is not displayed.

  • The “Advance” details displayed under “Bill Details“ section is displayed only if the config flag “Advance enabled” is set as true. If it is set as false, then the advance details is not displayed.
