Student Payment Statements

You can use the Student Payment Statements page to generate periodic batches of Student Accounts receivable or payment statements. You can also use the page to print the generated payment statements.

The Student Payment Statements process retrieves scheduled payments from the Payment Schedule of the student based on the selected criteria and presents the Amount Due based on the total number of scheduled payments due. The process also provides the option to display the Overall Student Balance (total balance for all enrollments) of the student or only the Current Enrollment Balance.

You can then use the page to review all the batches that have been processed.

  • Common - Processes - View authorization
