Fee Types
Create a Fee Type for the different fees assessed by the school. Add each fee type under the appropriate Fee Category provided by the district.
For example:
Fee Category | Fee Type |
---|---|
School | Enrollment |
Course | Textbook |
Field Trip | Instructional |
Fee Types are set at the district and school levels. District fee types assigned to schools will be read-only at the school level. Newly added schools will receive all district fee types.

Rank Fee Types
After fee types are created, you can rank them in the order by which you want the fees to be paid. A lower value, such as 1, indicates the fee type that will be paid before a fee type with a higher value, such as 3. You can also assign a priority value of 0 for one-off fees, such as a specific event.
Priority values can be set so that school fee types can be positioned between district fee types. For example, district fee types may be assigned priorities such as 10, 20, and 30, allowing school fee types to use values like 11, 12, or 21.
On the Fee Types page enter a numeric value for each fee type indicating the order in which payments are to be distributed.
