Posting Payments
Parties or others involved with a case are expected to pay for the fees on a case. These fees can be added during the life of the case. When a payment is taken in, that amount is displayed as escrow until it is disbursed.
Determine if your workstation is set up to take payments. To enter any payments, the workstation must be set up as a cashiering station. Your workstation is not set up if:
•  A warning is displayed when accessing the Add a Payment dialog box.
•  The Collection Till Sign-On dialog box displays “Not Linked” in the Station section.
If the workstation computer is not setup to take payments, contact your system administrator.

•  The Balances view or the Transactions view of a case’s Financial tab
•  The account Search Results page after marking accounts
•  A party’s Financial tab
•  When adding or modifying payment plans
2. Enter the appropriate information in the payment transaction fields displayed.
3. Select one of the following options to complete the payment.
