Running the Write-Off Totals Report

This report only calculates write-offs posted as code 50.90. Any other codes do not display. The total for Actual Write-Offs Posted might differ from the total of Write-Offs due to posted write-off transaction modifications.

The Actual Write-Offs Posted field gives a total of what is actually posted in your system.

The Risk and Development Write-Offs Posted field displays the percentage of the expected insurance payment that has to be written off, calculated using the total of all codes 50.91 posted.

If the Summary format is selected, only totals listed for Total and Writeoffs display.
