Tax Types

This is the first thing to set up. Here you set up the relevant taxes which will apply when billing. These will become attached to the account when setting the account up.

Accounts

This refers to the accounts the finances will be moving through. 

Categories

This allows you to group products together to easily apply discounts, allow individual payment configurations or connect a range of products to a single account. These categories may have sub-categories.  

Products

These are the items you will bill to your community. E.g., tuition, fees, textbooks, library fund fees, levies. Each product can only be allocated to one category.

Discounts

Discounts may be applied single product categories or all product categories. Where discounts have been attached at a category level, all products within that category will have the discount applied.  

Billing Family

This is where you allocate what student belongs to what billing family. Creating an association between siblings enables easy calculations for the system to automatically apply family discounts. Students can only be attached to one billing family.
