8.7.2.9 Manual Entry and Import of Arrears

Level of expertise required for this Chapter: Intermediate; specifically for LUPMIS @ TCPD

Arrears are debts from previous years. They can be included in the new invoices or can be ignored. This choice is made at the definition of fee-fixing (see Chapter 8.7.2.7 Fee-fixing).

If arrears are considered in the debts calculation, they have to be entered in LUPMIS either through a manual entry or through import from a file with the arrears.

A) Manual entry

For a very few arrears to be entered you can choose the manual entry. Enter the UPN or SubUPN of the property (or business) to define a new 'payment', eventhough it is a debt (a kind of a negative payment).

Revenue Tools > Entry > Payment: Property (or Business) > Enter UPN > Continue

> Enter only the amount of arrears in GHc (of the previous year, of course). Don't enter any other figures or values in this screen, and Save Payment.

B) Import of arrears from a CSV file (from Excel)

You have to prepare an Excel file with following columns:
- UPN (and SubUPN, if applicable) (in column A [and B])
- Amount of arrears (in GHc) (in column E for payment)
- Word 'Property' or 'Business' (in column F)
- Word 'Arrears' (in column G)
- Year from when arrears is dating back (e.g. for the assessment in 2015, enter arrears year 2014) (in column O)
- Word 'Payment' in a control column at the right side (in column P)
- Control number -99 in the the very last column (column; R)

This will set the arrears as debit for the date of December 31.

It has to be saved as a CSV file with '_field_data' in its file name.


This special import can be called by ticking the box at the selection screen.
