Payment Scheme:
The payment scheme is a statistical budget billing
procedure. Consumption billing amounts from previous
and current billing periods are copied to the payment
scheme and distributed evenly over the next billing
period. The budget billing amount is determined partially
from an extrapolation portion that reflects the expected
consumption for the current billing period and partially
from the copied consumption billings. It is not necessary
to copy consumption billings to the payment scheme in
order to use this procedure. If you do copy them, the bills
are not paid directly by the customer but during the next
billing period when the payment scheme requests are
paid. The payment scheme allows payments to be made
in weekly, fortnightly, monthly, quarterly, and yearly
cycles. The validity period of a payment scheme is
unrestricted. This means that a payment scheme is not
ended and another created when you create a periodic
bill. Instead, the existing payment scheme is adjusted.
