Description

Billing Elements and Store. The Billing Elements module is a companion to the Student Billing module. It provides a way to define, categorize, sell, track and generate reports (charts) for billing elements / items. Billing Elements are typically books, courses, school trips or any item you sell to students. A Fee is automatically created every time you assign an element to a (group of) student. Optionally, each element can be restricted to one or various Grade Levels, and associated to one Course Period.

The Daily Transactions report lists transactions for a specific timeframe. You can filter transactions by category and reconcile payments if any.

Elements can be offered to Students and their Parents for purchase. When a Student or a Parent accesses the Billing Elements module, it will be displayed as a “Store” where they can purchase an element if they have sufficient funds (check Student Billing > Payments for Balance). When a course is purchased, the Student is automatically enrolled.

Compatible with the Moodle and Iomad plugins.

Note: Elements are automatically rolled to the next school year. Uncheck the Rollover checkbox if you do not wish to roll an element.
Note 2: Category Breakdown charts are displaying 25 elements at most per category. Please try to create enough categories in order to fully benefit from the report.
Note 3: Students are not enrolled in the course when the Element is assigned by an administrator.
Note 4: the “Purchase” button is hidden from Students and Parents if you remove them access to the Student Elements / My Elements program.

Includes Help. Translated in French, Spanish, Slovenian and Portuguese (Brazil).
