Existing Service Code Changes Billing service changes:

• Creating a new bill for the advance amount in BillServiceV2. Removing the following line while adding the bill objects to the list if (billAmount.compareTo(BigDecimal.ZERO) >= 0)

• Passing Active status filter for demand search during apportioning in DemandService. DemandCriteria searchCriteria = DemandCriteria.builder().tenantId(tenantId) .status(Demand.StatusEnum.ACTIVE.toString()).consumerCode(Collections.singleton(consumerCode)). businessService(businessService).build();

• New Demand audit history API in Demandcontroller. An API that returns the audit history of demandDetails. demand/_history

Water service changes:

• Create water connection API : Adding a check for payment type advance. If advance, passing a boolean isAdvanceCollection to calculationRequest to water calculator service.

• Update water connection API: Adding a check for payment type advance. If advance, passing a boolean isAdvanceCollection to calculationRequest to water calculator service. Adding a check for advance in the validateUpdate method to set the current demand to CANCELLED.

Water calculator service changes:

• Calling estimation service getEstimationMap based on isAdvanceCalculation boolean. If true, reading taxAmount from criteria.getWaterConnection().getAdvance();

• Changes in getEstimatesForTax for a new taxHeadCode ADVANCE_COLLECTION with value WS_ADVANCE_CARRYFORWARD

• Getting the advance amount in getCalculation with taxHeadCode ADVANCE_COLLECTION 4.Calling generateDemand method based on isAdvanceCalculation. If true, create a demand object with consumerType “waterConnection-advance“.
