Fees List

Fees List contains a list of all fee types (the "Fee" model) in the system.

Users with the relevant permissions can create a fee type from this screen.

Fields available on create are:

  • Name
  • Fee Type
  • Amount
  • Barcode Root

Users with the relevant permissions can view a given fee type, and delete fee types.

When viewing a fee, a user can, in addition to editing a fee, may generate a barcode sheet.  When generating a barcode sheet (for use with Avery labels), the user will be asked for:

  • Starting Number
    • This is the number that follows the barcode prefix.  For example, if the barcode prefix were FEE, and the starting number 1, this would generate a barcode of FEE0000001 by default (the default barcode length is 10 characters in total).
  • Ending Number
    • This 1 more than the upper value you wish to print (an exclusive upper bound)
  • Barcode Length
    • This is the length you want your barcodes to be, this controls how many padding zeros to insert

Fee Action Creator

The Fee Action Creator allows users with the relevant permissions to create a fee action.

Fields available on create are:

  • Action
  • Student ID
  • Barcode

The screen is optimized for usage with a barcode scanner, scanning the Student ID first, and then the Barcode.
