Create the schedule
- Step 1. Open Recurring fees and create a fee with a clear name, such as Feeding.
- Step 2. Choose an open term, start and end dates, and Daily / selected weekdays or Flat weekly charge.
- Step 3. For daily charging, select the chargeable weekdays. For a flat weekly charge, choose its billing weekday.
- Step 4. Set each participating class rate. Review public-holiday skipping and enter any extra dates to skip.
- Step 5. Use the preview to check the pupil count, occurrences and first charge, then activate the plan.
Collect for a class
- Step 1. Choose the fee, class and date range in the register.
- Step 2. Select Collect for a class and the actual collection date.
- Step 3. Review each pupil’s suggested amount, existing collection, balance and advance credit. Enter what was received.
- Step 4. Review the total and payment details, then confirm the class collection.
- Step 5. Check the register and receipts. A dash means no net collection for that date; it does not establish an exemption.
Exempt a pupil for particular dates
Select the pupil or pupils and use Exempt selected. Enter the start date, optional end date and reason. The exemption applies only to that plan. Review the effect on charges already in that range. For a flat weekly fee, the range must include the billing weekday to exempt that occurrence. Ending an ongoing exemption resumes charging from the effective date shown.
Edit rates or pause future charging
Use Edit rates / schedule / pause. Existing-plan changes apply from tomorrow or a later selected date. Preview them before saving. Use Update scheduled charges if the register needs to catch up with its configured schedule. Review any billing error message rather than entering substitute debt manually.
Print a register
Use Blank PDF register for a collection sheet and Completed PDF register for the recorded results. Check the selected class and date range before exporting.
Review or reverse an entry
Open a pupil’s history in the recurring register to inspect dated charges, payments, waivers and refunds. For a mistaken payment, use Undo payment, enter the reason and confirm the reversal. This reverses the full selected payment and keeps the original receipt in history. Review the resulting balance. Editing a future schedule is a separate operation.
