Overview

The Accounting > Summary menu in Paradigm will show you all the student financial details from course enrolment(s) to all unit enrolments, a list of all invoices created, and all payments made. The screenshot below will give you an overview on how our Accounting Summary would look like – structured into different sections.

Expand the section below each Summary section image to give you more details – what you can view and do, and all the possible options you can see under each ACTIONS menu found in some of the sections:

STUDENT DETAILS

This section will show some student details, structured similarly to the student summary screen but only showing the relevant details for accounting purposes and with menus under the ACTIONS button which focuses on the student financial record.

The following are some of the menus you can see when the ACTIONS button is selected:

Print Pro Forma Invoice
Email Statement of Fees
Print Statement of Account – This will print the student’s statement of account reflecting the full history of a student showing a running balance as each payment, invoice, return or credit note is recorded.
Create New General Invoice

COURSE ENROLMENTS

This section will give you all the student’s course enrolment(s) detailing the fees, scholarships, funding, amount paid, and owed. This is also where you can create a new invoice.

All Course Enrolments can be viewed
Create New invoice button, see Raising Enrolment Invoice Workflow
The Select Course option

CURRENT UNIT ENROLMENTS

All unit enrolments of the student will appear here with the corresponding unit fee, scholarship, funding, upfront, paid amount, and the amount owing. You also have the option to directly edit each unit enrolment by clicking on the EDIT (pencil icon) button.

The 10 most recent Unit Enrolments
Including Funding Types, payment types, and amounts outstanding
Invoice Id (for those unit enrolments which are already invoiced)
Edit Unit enrolment (this leads to the full unit enrolment page)

BE ADVISED

On the Unit enrolment page, students have three ways to discharge each unit fee.

Pay by themselves (Upfront Amount)
Pay by the institution (Scholarship Amount)
Loan from the government - (Funding Amount)

The sum of Upfront Amount + Funding Amount + Scholarship Amount = TUITION FEE
