1.Configuring Rollback/Compensatory Tax Data #

Purpose

Use this procedure to configure the administrative recording fee, and the penalty and interest to be associated with rollbacks/compensatory taxes (note the fee) by year once they become delinquent.

Prerequisites

  • In order to perform this procedure, the following user rights are required:
    • Codefile Maintenance > General > Edit Current Use Rollback Configuration
    • Codefile Maintenance > General > View Current Use Rollback Configuration

Procedure

  1. In PACS.ADMIN, choose Tools> Rollback Compensatory Tax Configuration.
  2. In the Rollback/Compensatory Tax Configuration Maintenance dialog box, select the levy year that you want to view/edit, and click Details.
  3. In the Rollback/Compensatory Tax Configuration Details dialog box, complete the following options as required:
    • Select Fee Type for Additional/Recording Fee

      Select one of the administrative record fee types, which were set up in Code File Maintenance in PACS.ADMIN under General > Fee Type.

      This fee type code is displayed on the tax statement with the rollback bill line items.

    • To add a row to the grid:
      1. Click Add a new row is added to the grid.
      2. In the new row, complete the fields, including the Calculation Date.

        The number of days, between 1 and 365, after the effective due date on which the calculation of the penalty or interest begins.

        The following rules apply based on the frequency you selected.

        • If you selected Monthly:

        The day of the date that penalty and interest begins will be used to determine the day of each month that the percentage to multiply against the base amount will increase by a multiple of 1. So, for example, if the percentage is 2% the first month, then the total percentage will be 4% the second month, 6% the third month, and so on. The total percentage should always be multiplied against the base amount only.

        • If you selected One-Time:

        The percentage specified will be charged against the base amount only once after the number of days has passed.

    • To edit a row in the grid, select the row that you want to edit, and edit its values as you would for adding a row.
    • To delete a row from the grid, select the row that you want to delete, and click Delete.
    • To save your changes and keep the dialog box open, click Apply.
    • To save your changes and exit the dialog box, click OK.

2.Executing the Rollback/Removal Wizard #

Purpose

Use this procedure to estimate or complete a rollback or removal by entering the information needed to calculate the removal of current use on a property.

Note An estimate cannot be converted to a completed rollback.

Prerequisites

  • In order to perform current use removal, one or more of the Current Use user rights under Property > Edit Property > Rollbacks (Current Use) must be assigned to your ID.

If you are not completing the rollback, you must have accurate value information in order for the wizard to perform an accurate calculation.

  • When completing or voiding a rollback, the rollback must be associated with a supplement group. Bills can be created after the supplement group has been accepted. Bills must be generated for each levy that was associated with the property, for all years included in the rollback. Individual bills for the properties for each year will have the bill suppressed, so that the only relevant bill will be the rollback bill.
