A payment is the amount a family owes for a child's enrolment. It is split into instalments, collected during the year.

Created automatically

If “Générer un paiement (Auto)” (generate payment) is on in Setings, each enrolment creates its payment, for the enrolment's total. With “Générer des versements (Auto)”, its instalments are created too: see Instalment.

The screen at a glance

“Student Payments”: Amount, Total Paid, After Reduction, Total Remaining, Due Date, Is Paid, Is Past Due
  • Filters: status, due date range, completion date range, student, parent, and the ✕ button.
  • Columns: Amount, Total Paid (green), After Reduction, Total Remaining (red), Due Date, Is Paid, Is Past Due, Parent, Subscriptions (the enrolment).
  • Actions: Refresh list, Create a new Student Payment; on each row View, Edit, Imprimer (print), Delete.

Apply a discount

  1. Click Edit on the payment.
  2. In Discounts, add one or more discount types (siblings, staff child…). Discounts are percentages.
  3. Click Save: After Reduction and Total Remaining are recalculated.

That's how a special price is given: the enrolment's total itself is never changed by hand.

Create a payment by hand

Create a new Student Payment: Amount, Total Paid, Description, Discounts, Due Date, Parent and Subscriptions. Useful for a payment outside an enrolment; usually, let TheSchool create them.
