Mark Items as Paid

The Mark Items as Paid feature allows administrators to efficiently update the payment status of outstanding items in bulk. Its primary purpose is to streamline administrative workflows when resolving unpaid balances for specific user demographics, item types, or lists of recovered violations returned by a collection agency. This article is intended for OPS-COM administrators.

Setup and Configuration

There is no specialized system configuration required to access this tool. Processing bulk payments is a standard administrative function available to users with the appropriate financial reporting and payment management permissions enabled on their account profile.

Using this Feature

Administrators can execute bulk payment updates either by defining broad system criteria or by entering a specific list of ticket numbers.

Exclude PINs from Violation Numbers: When entering violation numbers into the bulk tool, you must not include the PIN associated with the ticket. For example, if a ticket is listed as 2-001345-92 (where 92 is the PIN), you should only enter 2-001345.


Best Practices and Considerations

Processing a bulk payment applies a permanent financial status change to all entered records, and manually reversing a large batch of incorrect tickets can be a time-consuming administrative task.
