Issue (applicable for Synergetic versions 71.07 – 71.09)

** The issue only occurs if your school is configured to use the new functionality where payment plans do not require the use of Debtor Instalments.  **

The issue occurs when a debtor is logged into the Community Portal and is setting up their payment plan.  They are able to select their preferred plan, and then activate the payment.  However, when they press ‘Finish’ to finalise their plan, they receive the following error: “Error, no debtor instalments for debtor ????”.  This prevents the plan from being saved.

Also note that this might not impact all debtors as it only occurs if the debtor has This only impacts debtors that have never had a fee instalment created on their account.  Therefore if you ran payment plans in previous years, those debtor accounts would have had fee instalments existing and they won’t encounter the error.  New debtors would though.

...

this will only impact schools using Payment Plans without instalments. However, we recommend applying all hotfixes that impact your current version.
