Fee Code

Enter a meaningful code for the fee you want to create.
For example, TU07 for the tuition fee for Year 7 students.
Sometimes discounts vary based on the campus or year level the student is in at the time. A replaceable part of the fee code takes the form *{Campus|Year Level}* where the Year Level is optional. You can define the characters used within the {} brackets.

For example:

  • DIS{J} - 20% will apply a discount of 20% in the Junior school.
  • DIS{S} - 30% will apply a discount of 30% in the Senior school.
