This task checks the tenant and subsidy receivable billing against the scheduled receivable items that are created by the certifications on the household's Transactions tab, and creates any necessary billing corrections, starting with a date you specify.
Using the Rebill Household task on the Receivable tab will evaluate both certified schedules and non-certified schedules.
If a user has corrected or adjusted an open item created from the schedule or added a new receivable open item that uses the same charge type as a schedule, which show as "Receivable Adjustments" in Event History, the Rebill Household task will not look at these Receivable Adjustments when evaluating the schedule.
If a user has reversed an event that was billed from a schedule, the Rebill Household task will undo the reversal. In other words, it will put the previously-removed open item back to where it had been. Instead of reversing an event, correct the balance to zero or write it off.
The household must be living in a unit and have scheduled receivable items for Rent, non-certified scheduled receivables and/or Subsidy.

Enter the start date from which you want the system to check and correct the billing.
Click Finished.
The system will automatically check both Tenant (both rent and non-certified schedules) and Subsidy receivable billing for every month from the start date to the current month when you complete the task, so you only need to run it once, from either tab.
An Overall Status window will pop up with a Passed or Failed message and display any GL entries that were created.
If it failed you may need to make a correction or contact Bostonpost Client Support at myMRI or contact a Client Support Analyst directly at (877) 579-8896 for assistance.
If it passed click Close.
If the system found that corrections were needed you will see Billing Corrections in Event History.
This task will only check and correct the billing for the current unit. It will not make any changes to incorrect billing for previous units, even if you enter a start date back to when the tenant was in that previous unit (i.e. a unit transfer.)
Q. Why/When would I need to run this task?
A. Because you have made a back-dated correction to certification information on the Transactions tab of the household or you have made a change to a non-certified scheduled receivable on the Receivables Tab and you want the system to double- check that all receivable billing corrections have been made to match the new Rent/Subsidy and non-certified schedule amounts. This should happen automatically when you make your correction. However, this is just for safety reasons as you are unable to add tenant Rent receivables and you should not use the Add New Subsidy Receivable to add missing billing events.
Q. I meant to go back further with my date. Can I run again?
A. Yes, you can run this as many times as you want.
