  • Director

  • Needs: Manage School
  • Phone
  • Desktop
  • Draft

These two settings decide which month revenue lands in on dashboards and reports. They do not change what families are billed.

Before you start

Steps​

  1. Open Account → Manage School and tap Billing.
  2. Under Accounting, open Registration accounting and pick:
    • Cash: registration revenue is counted when payment is received.
    • Accrual: registration revenue is counted when billed; invoices carry a balance until paid or written off.
    The Accounting group in the Billing section
  3. Open Tuition accounting and pick:
    • Due date: tuition revenue is counted in the month the invoice is due.
    • Service period: tuition revenue is counted in the month its service period starts. Invoices without a service period use the due date.
  4. Tap Save Changes.

Tips​

  • With Service period, invoices need a service period to land correctly. A paid invoice missing one can be fixed with Set Service Period; see Add a service period to a paid invoice.
  • Registration invoices billed against the wrong school year can be moved with Set School Year.
