Billing Notices

These notices are sent when a borrower’s total fine amount reaches a set limit. Your library determines the limit that fines must reach before sending a billing notice. Since the billing notice is generated for the total fine amount, the notice does not list each individual fine amount, but instead gives the total amount due. (For more information, see Printing or E-mailing Notices, Invoices, and Reminders.)

When the notice is generated, Horizon attaches an Automatic Bill Sent notice to each individual fine block so that if you access the Block Detail window for that block, you can tell that the borrower has been notified of the unpaid fine.

If Horizon generates several overdue notices and a billing notice for a borrower, all the notices for that specific borrower will be printed on the same page.

Here is an example of a billing notice:

You can disable the generation of billing notices for different locations. (For more information, see “Setting Up a Location Record” in the “General Setup” chapter of the System Administration Guide.)
