The default value is one (1).

For example, you might set this to 2 if you print two copies: one for the debtor and one for filing.

Select to include the name of your organisation on receipts.

Overdue Letters

Select the default values for a new debtor for the minimum balance and days between letters on overdue letter runs. You can select:

• to calculate the amount overdue each day
• the minimum balance for which a letter is sent
• whether that balance is applicable for all letter types
• the number of days before the first letter is sent
• the number of days after the previous letter that each subsequent letter is sent.

Multiple Sub-Ledgers Active

Debtors can have separate accounts if your organisation requires separate billing. For example, separate billing for a swimming school.

You need to set up full sub ledger descriptions. See Creating debtor accounts for separate billing in the Debtors manual.

The amount of the contribution can be added to the statement total along with normal charges and receipts.

Charge Tuit Var Students non Var Fees in Auto Tuit

Allows students with a tuition variation to be charged fees with no tuition variation code if a matching fee does not exist with a tuition variation code.

This is mostly used for full-fee paying students.

Use the Tuition Variation field on the Auto Tuition tab of Debtors Fee Maintenance to specify any variation to the normal tuition fee schedule. For example, for a full-fee paying student.

Concession Overrides Auto Tuition Fee

If a concession is set up, use this field to specify whether the concession overrides the fee or adds to the fee.

You can modify charges for a particular student at the fee code level.

Tip: You can define a zero concession to override a charge for students not attending a particular event. For example, a camp.

For groups of students, use tuition variation.
