For a fee to appear in the Fees Editor, it must first be assigned to the person, either individually or en masse using the Fee Wizard in the Fees section. Fees available for assignment depend on the options set by the school or district and are created in the Fees tool. Only fees that are marked as active can be assigned to students.

Once a fee is assigned to a person, it cannot be deleted, only voided.
