Fields

Field

Description

Building

Select the building that will use the fee item.

Fee Code

Unique identifier for this Fee Item.

Type

The type of fee that this fee item applies to. If your building uses Fee Groups to bill students, you can only apply a fee with the same fee type to a group. For example, if a fee group is billed based on activity information, the fee items to be billed as part of this group must have a fee type of Activity.

Select:

A - Activity - to indicate the fee item applies to fee groups that are billed based on students' activities.
C - Course - to indicate the fee item applies to fee groups that are billed based on students' scheduled courses.
D - Debit - to indicate the fee item allows a payment to create a credit that can be applied toward debit charges.
S - Student - to indicate the fee item applies to fee groups that are billed based on student informa+tion.

Description

Text describing the fee item. Character/255

Unit Cost

Cost per unit. For example, 50.00 or 11.95. Decimal/6,2

Unit Type

Unit of measurement for the fee item. For example, a unit may be dozen, ticket, or book.

Priority

Number indicating the order in which fee item should be paid when automatic payments are applied. When a payment is applied automatically, the fee item with the lowest order number (for example, 10) is paid first, then the next lowest order number is paid, and so on until the full amount of the payment is applied. Small Integer

If you want items to be paid based on the date that the student was charged the fee, set all items to the same priority order. By default, fee items are assigned an order of 50.

May Be Prorated

Checked if the fee can be prorated for students who add or drop courses or for students who are resolved out of the course's marking periods. For example, select May Be Prorated to allow a course fee to be discounted if the student drops the course in the first two weeks.

An item can be prorated for some courses, but not others. When you define Fee Groups, you can specify that a fee item is or is not prorated for a specific course. The fee group prorate setting for an item overrides the setting for the individual fee item.

For example, if the fee should be prorated for most courses, but not all courses, select May Be Prorated for the fee item. When you define the fee group for the course for which the item cannot be prorated, clear the Prorate checkbox.
