This article explains how admins can create deposits manually in our system. Deposits can be made in the form of cash, check or credit card. Admins have the ability to create individual deposits or a family deposit for all students in the family.
When creating a deposit, admins can choose from 4 category types to add credit to the system.
Category | Description | Example: |
Discount/Waiver | This will deduct a certain amount from the owed fee. | A parent owes less than what was required for registration. Admin can apply a discount waiver to reduce the fee owed. |
Payment | This will add a credit into the selected Account | Depositing $20 to a student’s lunch account. |
Refund | This will refund the desired amount back to the user. Refunds are not voidable once issued. | Refunding $50 will remove $50 from the balance of the user’s account. |
Starting Balance | Rolling over credit from the previous academic year will create a starting balance. | A student’s lunch deposit rolled over and will begin the new year with a starting balance of $15. |
