  1. Revoke POD (Password of the Day) in Fix Fees Program

    I would like to see the POD removed from the Fix Fees Program. I am very frustrated with putting in a critical service call first thing in the morning to get the code and it's 4 hours later and we still haven't gotten a call. I have now been sitting in live chat for over 30 minutes. We have school choice and a large school district. Parents enroll and pay fees online over the summer and now that students are dropping and spots are opening we transfer students to their first choice. But we cannot delete them out of the…

    We’ll send you updates on this idea

    Thank you all once again for your comments and votes on this product Idea. An option has been added to Fee Management module to allow transferring of payments/receipts between entities and will be security enabled. This update will be available within the upcoming June release addendum 11, which will be posted on 10/28/2021. Thank you.

  2. E-mail Receipt button while taking payments

    To make the process faster when taking cash or check payments via Fee Management>Customers area, we would like to have the capability to EMAIL the receipt to the parent right when we are processing the payment. That way we don't have to print or ask the parent to verify their family access account. IF we can send the email right when they are making the payment it would move our lines faster especially at the beginning of the school year. THANKS!

  3. Summary Cost and Reimbursement Claim Form

    We have found that this report does not work when attempting to run the second claim reimbursement in the Spring for students who enrolled after the first cutoff date. Because the report only contains a report date rather than a range it provides ALL students who qualified rather than students who qualified after a certain date. Replacing the Report DATE with Report RANGE would allow us to run this for both the fall and spring data collections. hanks in advance for your consideration of this RFE.

  4. Add automated email for student fees

    Add a trigger for "a new fee charge was added"
    Parents do not know when new fee charges have been added to their account. It would be nice if an email went to the parent when a new charge has been added.

  5. Ability to assign a fee in FM based on an ACTIVITY

    Students are assigned activity codes for tracking purposes such as STC for student council that may represent CLUBS or other affiliations and not courses. These are viewed under Student Profile/ activity tab. We need to have the ability to assign fees to activities other than courses such as club cheer or national honor society etc. which are unique to each school code.
    Fees are charges to students for activities that do not have course codes such as CHEER at the middle school level. We need to be able to assign these via fee management. Also CHEER or Student Council etc…
