Overview

Payments allow transactions through a payment provider in SchoolEngage.

Payment Items

In order to incorporate payments into forms, Payment Items that parents can pay for must first be created.

These payment items have many options:

• Type

  • Can be a “normal” single payment, for incorporate a “recurring” monthly payment to allow parents to pay for things in installments.

• Name

  • The reference name of the payment item. This will appear in the parents basket as well as receipts.

• Category

  • The category of the payment for better organization in the interface.

• Description

  • A more elaborate description of the payment item. (But can be the same as the name) This will appear in certain modals when referencing the payment item.

• GL Code

  • And internal code that can be used to keep track of items when exporting payment data from SchoolEngage.

• Count

  • The maximum number of these items that are available to purchase. This setting is optional, but will prevent parents from buying more of the item than is available.
