s. Every fee in the
(Re) Enrollment Contract
must have a corresponding product. The product description is shown to parents on the
(Re) Enrollment Contract
. The amount used to calculate the
(Re) Enrollment Contract
deposit is specified in the Deposit section of the product, if applicable.
Example
: You have a tuition product named Tuition Grade 5. The tuition amount is $20,000. The deposit amount could be specified as a precise amount such as $2000 or as a percent as $0.25 which would calculate the deposit amount as $4000.
Note
: Financial Aid also requires a product associated with a revenue or expense account to be set up - if you are using financial aid. Typically, the financial aid product will be associated with a contra revenue account.
Note
: Deposit amounts less than or equal to 1 are treated as a percentage of the product amount.
4. Set up Finance > Maintenance > Fiscal Years. Fiscal years must be created for both the current school year and the next school year. The fiscal years must be open to allow posting of invoices and receipts. Deposits are made in the current fiscal year. Invoices are created in either fiscal year depending on

5. Set up Finance > Maintenance > Payment Terms. Payment terms determine the schedule of payments that the invoice is due.

For instance, the 10 Month payment plan could be 10 payments with 10% due each payment, and the first payment due July 1st. The payment terms you choose to offer your parents are up to you.
6. Set up Fin Aid > Fin Aid Categories. Financial aid categories are a way to organize financial aid awards.

7. Set up Fin Aid > Awards. These are financial aid awards given out to students.
Note
: The award must be for the same academic year as the
