Future Student Maintenance - Concessions tab

Use the Concessions tab to maintain concessions and discounts that apply to the various fees generated by automatic tuition debtor functions. These will apply to the future student once they become a current student.

These fields have no effect while the student is a future student, and will only be actively used once the student is transferred into current students.

Tip: Reverse all signs to apply charges. For example, a positive amount or a negative percentage signifies a charge.
