Recalculating a fee on a project
If the fee amount or quantity is updated, use recalculate to use the updated fee amount and quantity to calculate a new fee balance. For example, City XYZ sets up a fee. Later that year, City XYZ changes the fee amount after the project has already been created. City XYZ uses the option to recalculate a fee to update the fee amount on the project to show the new fee amount.
Do this...
1. Open Connect Community Development > Projects > Modify Existing Projects.
2. Look up a project and then press Enter.
Look up bar
3. Click to select the Fees tab.

Only fees that allow you to recalculate the fee will have the menu option to Recalculate Fee.
Recalculate Fee
If the fee has applied payments, you will be prompted to unapply the applied payments to recalculate the fee. After the fee is recalculated you can apply the unapplied payments to the fee. (See the help topic titled How do I apply payments to a project?)

Manually overriding a fee amount on a project
You can replace the fee amount on a project with a new fee amount. You do not need to use the option to "recalculate fee" when you're done. For example, City XYZ has adjusted a fee amount, and City XYZ wants to replace the value with the original fee amount.
Note: When you run the manual override option, you will lose the calculation notes that are stored in the Fee Detail. (Click the Dynamic button and then select Additional Information to show the Fee Detail.)
