#### Settings for When to Send Bill Notifications

Use the Enable Bill Notifications check box in combination with Send Options to determine if/when notifications are sent.

- ***Enable Bill Notifications*** lets you turn notifications on/off at any time.
- ***Begin Sending Notifications After*** date lets you specify a future date to begin sending notifications.
- ***Send the notifications immediately*** sends notifications immediately after the invoices for a Bill Period are approved (either by your billing team via the RunCenter web module or by an IDI associate on your behalf).
- ***Send the notifications at a specific time*** lets you establish a specific time of day to send notifications.

> [!NOTE]
> Note
> 
> If the approval happens after the configured time, the notifications will be sent the following day at the specified time.
- ***Send on weekdays only*** lets you avoid sending notifications on the weekend and delay sending them until the Monday following approval. This may be used in the case that invoices are approved on a Friday after the send time, or on Saturday or Sunday.
- ***Exclude invoices totaling zero*** will not send a notification to an account where the total amount due on the invoice is $0.00.

#### Default Notification Options

Use these settings to set defaults which may be overridden by Market and Account Type in the Overrides section below.

- ***Attach PDF*** lets you specify whether or not to attach the invoice PDF file to the notifications (yes/no).
- ***Notification Template*** lets you select a Bill Notification template (configured via Communications). Only templates configured as Bill Notification type are available for selection.
- ***Autopay Notification Template*** lets you optionally specify a separate template for notifications to accounts enrolled in Autopay.

#### Overrides

Use this section to configure overrides for the above defaults based on Account Type and/or Market. Click **Add Override** to add a new override rule.

This displays the Add Override form. Select a Market and/or Account Type where the rule should apply. Then choose:

- Whether to attach the Invoice PDF for the selected Market and/or Account.
- A different template for the selected Market and/or Account, and whether to use a different template for Autopay accounts.
