An error occurred where the total fee in the batch trailer (record code 8) was 1 higher than it should have been, causing the submission file to be rejected by MH.

    Cannot Reproduce! Sandy notes rounding errors are common in floating point math. Current total is calculated from total in submissionSociologicalRecord, which is calculated by summing the submissionServiceRecord amounts. Could calculate batchTrailerTotal based on submissionServiceRecord totals to lower the chance of another error.

    Added rounding when formatting any fee that is output. Perhaps this is a truncation issue?
