Add or Edit Banks

You can use the Banks form to:

  • Identify the banks with which your institution does business
  • Set up multiple accounts in each bank

  • Set up separate debit and credit accounts for stipends so that you do not have to use the same accounts as those used for refunds.
  • Print a list of your banks and the accounts in each bank

The General Ledger Accounts report lists the general ledger debit and credit account numbers for the selected transaction codes. Each bank account is related to a general ledger account number for posting transaction activity.

Prerequisites

To view the page, you must have Student Accounts - Configuration - View authorization.

If you want to integrate Anthology Student with Anthology Finance & HCM, you must setup Student Accounts GL Accounting system to Anthology Finance & HCM. This integration disables all the operations (such as Add, Delete, and so on) and can only be used in edit mode.

If you want to edit an item and it is associated with more than one campus, you must have access to all the campuses. For example, if the item was configured so that it is available at three campuses and you only have access to two of the campuses, you can view, but cannot edit it. (When you add an item, you can only select campuses where you have access.)

Access Method

Select the Configuration tile > expand Student Accounts > select Banks.
