ACA Surcharge Overrides for Customers and Orders

Creating Customer Specific ACA Surcharges

Just like every customer is unique, every contract you negotiate and sign with them can be unique. To help accommodate this, you can override ACA surcharge settings that are set up at the FEIN/employer level in order to change settings or make a customer exempt from ACA surcharges. 

In order to override an ACA surcharge, surcharges must first by set up by an administrator for this FEIN/employer in the system. Check out ACA Admin: Setting Up ACA Surcharges for Customers for more information.
