Fees Logic

Fees are assigned to a person and are not dependent on an enrollment. Therefore, the fees listed for a person can include fees assigned by any school.

Fees are not directly tied to a calendar. If fees remain unpaid from a previous year, they are included in the Unpaid Fees amount at the top of the screen. However, the calendar you select in the Campus Toolbar does control the year to which new fees are assigned. Inactive students with previous enrollments can pay old, unpaid fees and students with future enrollments can pay unpaid fees on future calendars using Online Payments.

Calendar rights are enforced when assigning fees to students. Users can only select fees that are created for a school to which they have rights. Fees created for use by all schools in the district will also display.

If a fee was paid using an online payment, the fee Assignment, Payment or Adjustment should NOT be made void or exempt. If necessary, use the Payments Reporter to refund the payment.

Fees Field Descriptions

The Fees tool itemizes all fees assigned to a person, including totals of how much was charged, how much was paid, and the remaining balance or surplus.

The following table describes all of the fields found on the Fees tool.

Field Name	Description
Unpaid Fees	The total amount that needs to be paid.
Surplus	If more has been paid than has been charged, a positive value appears and indicates the surplus amount available to be applied to later fees. Even after Surplus money is applied to other fees or refunded, you can see deposit and withdrawal details in the Surplus table. The Auto-pay Fees with Surplus Balance District Preference automatically pays any fee from the Surplus.
Balance	The Balance is the net of all debits minus all credits; e.g., surplus, fee maximum adjustment. A negative account balance indicates the account holder has funds available to pay unpaid fees, while a positive balance indicates the account holder owes money. If the account does not have a surplus or the district does not set fee maximums, the Unpaid Fees and Balance could be the same amount.
Year	The year in which the fees were assigned.
Household Max Student Max	The Fee Maximums tool sets a cap on the amount of fees a family pays for a school year. This cap can be set for just student fees (applies to fees listed on the Student Fees tool), for just household fees (applies to fees listed on the Household Fees tool) or both. The fee maximums defined in the Fee Maximums tool display in these columns.
Fee	The name of the name.
Due Date	The date the fee payment is due. If a due date has passed and the fee has not yet been paid, the due date will appear in red.
Balance	Indicates the amount remaining to be paid.
Description	For gray rows, this column includes a description of the fee, such as "Athletic Shorts" or "Summer School Tuition." For white rows, this column indicates what kind of transaction was performed, either a Payment or an Adjustment. Information about individual fees can be expanded and collapsed by clicking the + or - sign next to the Fee Description.
Type	For gray rows, this column includes the category of the fee, such as "Gym Uniforms" or "Registration." For white rows, this column indicates where the Payment was made, such as "In Office" or "Online."
Date	Applies to Payments and Adjustments, indicating when the transaction took place.
Exempt	Indicates if a fee is considered exempt and therefore does not need to be paid. Exempt fees will have a checkmark in this field. If a Student or Household Fee Maximum has been reached, this field will read "Student Maximum Met" or "Household Maximum Met."
Debit	The original amount of the fee. In the case of exemptions or if a Household Max or Student Max is met, this value will be 0.00.
Credit	Applies to Payments and Adjustments, indicating the amount that was deducted, through either payment or removal because of an adjustment.

Important Information About this Process

Deposits cannot be voided, only refunded.
Voiding a Fee Assignment also voids all Payments and Adjustments attached to the assignment.
If a payment transaction originally included surplus funds which were then reallocated to another fee, the original payment cannot be voided. Later payments made with the surplus funds must first be voided before the original payment can be voided.
When voiding a fee that was paid using an online payment, this message appears:
Clicking Continue voids the payment and deposits the amount of the online payment into the surplus, and the payment can NOT be refunded in the Payments Reporter tool.
Clicking Cancel does NOT void the online payment through the Fees tool. Instead, you can use the Payments Reporter to refund the payment.

Auto-pay Fees with Surplus Balance (District Preference)

The Auto-pay Fees with Surplus Balance preference automatically pays any fee with surplus. Surpluses can only be applied to fees for the selected student. When a surplus is available, the payment of a fee comes from the surplus amount for that student only.

When set to Yes, auto-pay occurs in the following scenarios:

When a deposit is created after adjusting a fee assignment where the total adjustment plus total payments is greater than the fee amount.
When part of a payment is voided on a fee assignment. This auto-pays any other fees that may exist (but not the one where the payment was just voided).
When a new fee assignment is created when there is a surplus balance. This auto-pays the newly created fee first then any remaining surplus is auto-paid to other fees.

A message appears when making a payment for Students and Persons when a surplus exists alerting the office person the deposit will be applied to other fees.

Set the Auto-pay Fees preference to either Yes or No then click Save when you are done.

Print a Student's Fee Statement

This report generates a PDF in a format that can be folded and mailed to a person's primary address. The Fee Statement provides a list of totals, including the number and value of all fees incurred, the district-determined fee maximum if applicable, the total amount paid, and the balance due.

Setup Fee Maximums

The Fee Maximum tool sets a cap on the amount of fees a family pays for a school year. This cap can be set for just student fees (applies to fees listed on the Student Fees tool), for just household fees (applies to fees listed on the Household Fees tool) or both.

Screenshot of the Fee Maximums window. The example shows amounts in the Student Fee Maximum and Household Fee Maximum. Fee Maximums

Fee Maximum Logic

When setting fee maximums, consider the following items:

As a best practice, the Household Fee Maximum should be greater than the Student Fee Maximum.
Fee Maximums are set for the entire district.
Fee maximums should only be changed between school years (during summer break AFTER the active school year has been changed to the next school year). Changing the value during the school year is not recommended, as families that have previously met their maximum may be assessed additional fees.
Maximums only apply to students who have active enrollments. Fees assigned to household guardians do not calculate toward the maximum.
Maximums are not regressive. Changing the maximum has no impact on previous school years.

Primary vs. Secondary Households

When managing fees for students who belong to multiple households, or for blended households which include students with primary and secondary memberships in the household, the following items should be considered:

Only members indicated as primary can be assigned fees in the Household Fees editor.
Only fees assigned to members indicated as primary will calculate towards the Household Fee Maximum.
If a student has primary household memberships in two households, the Household Fee Max does NOT apply for any person in the household. However, the Student Fee Max (if set) does apply to all students in the household.

Setting Fee Maximums

Enter the dollar amount for Student Fee Maximum.
Enter the dollar amount for the Household Fee Maximum.
Click the Save icon when finished.

To remove this fee maximum, remove the entered value from either field.

When Fee Maximums are set, the dollar amount of that maximum displays on the Student Fees tool and the Household Fees tool.

Fees Documents

The Documents button on the Fees tool allows you to view all documents associated with a specific student's fees.

The Fees Documents button is enabled by your Campus administrator. See the Digital Repository Preferences article for more information.

Tool Search: Fees

The Household Fees tool displays fees transactions for all members of a household, including fee assignments, payments and adjustments.

If the household has reached the maximum fee amount established by the school and/or district, that will be noted in the Fees Editor.

If a school or district has a household maximum set, individuals' fees should be managed here, on the Household Fees tool.

Deposits cannot be made in the Household Fees tool. Deposits can be made in Student Fees or Person Fees; however, surplus values do appear in the Household Fees Editor.

See the Fees page for additional information on tasks that can be performed on all Fees tools.

Household Fees Logic

Fees are not directly tied to a calendar: if fees remain unpaid from a previous year, they will appear in the Unpaid Fees amount. However, the calendar selected in the Campus Toolbar controls the calendar in which the fee is assigned.

Inactive students with previous enrollments can pay old, unpaid fees and students with future enrollments can pay unpaid fees on future calendars using Online Payments.

Fees are assigned to a person and are not dependent on an enrollment. Therefore, the fees listed for a person can include fees assigned by other schools.

Calendar rights are enforced when assigning fees to individuals. Users will only be able to select fees that are created for a school to which they have rights. Fees created for use by all schools in the district will also display.

Primary vs. Secondary Households

When managing fees for students who belong to multiple households, or for blended households which include students with primary and secondary memberships in the household, the following items should be considered:

Only members indicated as primary can be assigned fees in the Household Fees editor.
Only fees assigned to members indicated as primary will calculate towards the Household Fee Maximum.
If a student has primary household memberships in two households, the Household Fee Max does NOT apply for any person in the household. However, the Student Fee Max (if set) does apply to all students in the household.

Fees Editor

The Fees Editor itemizes all fees assigned to each member of a household, including totals of how much was charged, how much was paid and the remaining debt or surplus. The following table describes all of the columns found in the Fee Editor.

Tool Search: Payments Reporter

The Payments Reporter details all transactions that were completed through the online payment process. With this tool, you can check the status of a specific payment, issue refunds, and revoke transactions.

View Details for a Single Transaction Issue a Full Refund Issue a Partial Refund Revoke a Transaction Resolve a Transaction Select Columns to Display Group Report by Specific Columns (Grouping Options) Create and Manage Templates Identify Deposit Balance by Fund ID Export the Report	Important Information about this Tool About the Deposit Process Tips for Searching Transaction Status Descriptions Payments Reporter Column Descriptions

Important Information about this Tool

Campus automatically voids all returned transactions. The original transaction appears with the Returned status and the correcting transaction appears with the Return Void status. Transactions may be returned if the account is not valid or has insufficient funds.
Transaction fees are never refunded.
Payments with the Transaction Status Resolved can only be refunded if the transaction was resolved by Campus Support. If you need to refund a payment that you manually resolved, contact Campus Support for assistance.
When a payer makes a purchase for $0.00, Campus assigns a reference number but a Payment Method does not appear in the report. In addition, Service Fees are not applied when the total is $0.00.
- A Deposit Date does not display either unless the zero dollar purchase was purchased with other items for which the payer was charged and the transaction is processed.
If an E-check fails, it can occur up to 10 business days after settling. If there is a failure, the amount of the E-check is automatically returned.
Refunds (full or partial) for echecks are not allowed until there is a Settlement Date.
Refunds for echecks are processed 12 days after the transaction's Payment Date. This ensures funds have cleared before the refund is processed.
All refunds that are requested between 5:45 p.m. and 6:00 p.m. Eastern Time will not process until 12:00 a.m. the following day. For example, a refund requested at 5:45 p.m. on September 1st will be processed at 12:00 a.m. on September 2nd. This rule applies to all payment types except for echecks which cannot be processed until 12 days after their transaction's Payment Date.
If a transaction is disputed, a chargeback fee is assessed. These can be searched for in the Description column as 'Chargeback'. When clicked, the Payment Transaction history will appear showing all the fees associated with that transaction.

About the Deposit Process

The deposit process runs daily before 5:45 PM Eastern Time (ET). The deposit job must complete by 6:00 PM Eastern Time (ET); otherwise, the payment platform moves the request date forward one day to ensure the deposit job has enough time to complete.

The deposit process does not run on weekends (Friday, Saturday, Sunday) or holidays.

Step

Description

1

Campus determines your district's account balance. When your district is processing payments, the fees associated with them and any returns/refunds you process are subtracted from your account balance when they occur. So, at the end of each business day Campus calculates the balance then requests a deposit. If your district's account balance is negative, Campus issues a negative deposit.

2

After determining the balance, Campus combines transactions with the following statuses into a deposit.

Completed
Resolved
Returned
Partial returned
Returnvoid
Transactions with a settled date
Transaction Fees

There is a brief delay (up to 1 hour) between the time the deposit request is made and when the deposit is processed by the payment platform.

3

If the deposit is...	Then...
Successful	You will see a deposit in your district's bank account. Keep in mind, you may see different deposit dates for one payment reference number since the deposit payment separates transaction line items.
Not Successful	The deposit is canceled and recalculated the following day.

Tips for Searching

You can search for transactions according to their Payment Date or Deposit Date. Click the Show Filters button, then select the option you want to use in the View By field and enter the appropriate start and end dates.
To include district payments such as Service Fees in your search, click the Show Filters button then toggle Include District Payments to ON. If you want to see payments made to your school only, set the toggle to OFF.
This toggle is only available if your system administrator has assigned the appropriate tool rights.
If you select All Schools in the School dropdown list, only payments made to the district display. However, you can set the Include School Payments toggle to On to include payments from all schools in the district.
Search results are grouped by Fund ID.
- Select an individual line to see the entire transaction in the Payment Transaction panel.
- Sort results by Deposit Date and Deposit Amount when trying to perform a bank reconciliation.
You can sort the results by clicking a column heading. Each click changes the data in ascending or descending order.
You can add filters to narrow the report's results. For example, you can find payments that were made on a specific date or Transaction Status.

Tip: The Payment Reference Number for transactions from the new payment platform begins with p1_txn. To exclude Vanco transactions and only see transactions from the new payment platform, use p1_txn in the Payment Reference Number column to filter your report's results.

Transaction Status Descriptions

Transaction Status	Description
Completed	A fully completed transaction.
Canceled	If a transaction displays this status, you can manually resolve the transaction or contact Campus Support.
Exception	The payment was processed by the payment vendor but not on Campus. If a transaction displays this status, you can manually resolve the transaction or contact Campus Support.
Returned and Return Void	Campus automatically voids all returned transactions from the payment vendor. The original transaction appears with the Returned status and the correcting transaction appears with the Return Void status. Transactions may be returned if the account is not valid or has insufficient funds. Transactions also appear in these states if the district manually Refunds a Payment. There could be a two to five-day delay in which Campus may have completed the transaction and the payment vendor may need to return it.
Resolved	Transactions may be manually resolved by Campus Support or by the district if the transaction was processed but still appears to be in an Exception, Canceled, or Pending Status in the Payments Reporter.
Revoked	Transactions can be manually revoked by the district if an interruption occurs between the district and the payment vendor where the payment was never processed. This status displays transactions manually revoked by the district within the date range entered on the editor.
Pending	If a transaction displays this status, you can manually resolve the transaction or contact Campus Support.
Processing	If a transaction displays this status, our payment processor is waiting for confirmation from the bank that the transaction has cleared. Once the confirmation is received, the deposit date could be in the past. For example, a fee or refund might show a deposit request date of 4/3 but will stay in pending status until 4/10 then once in completed status the deposit date would be 4/4. Negative deposits can take 5-7 business days before they have a Deposit State of Completed in Campus.
