Resolving Pre-Bill Issues in Bulk
When importing data from HCSS, some pre-bills may be flagged with issues—such as missing equipment definitions, cost codes, or lookup values. EWBills makes it easy to resolve these in bulk using the Resolve screen.
Using the Resolve Screen
-
On the Pre-Bill List Screen, click the Resolve button.
-
The system will scan all visible pre-bills for fixable issues.
-
A list of problems (e.g., missing equipment or cost codes) will appear, grouped by type.
Fixing Common Issues
-
Click on a listed issue (e.g., Missing Equipment: "EXC-101").
-
Click Resolve to apply the fix
Follow the onscreen instructions to Resolve the problem (e.g. Enter the missing information, activate the item etc.)
✅ The fix is applied across all affected pre-bills—you only need to resolve each unique issue once.
🔐 Note: Only users with the appropriate permissions can make changes from the Resolve screen.
Why Use This Screen?
-
Saves time by resolving issues across multiple pre-bills in a single step.
-
Ensures consistency across pre-bills.
-
Reduces manual editing errors.
