Edited

This document provides a comprehensive guide on how to record partial payments for externally paid fees in FinalForms. Follow the steps outlined below to successfully record and update partial payments.

Important: Any fees paid online through FinalForms must be paid in full, as partial payments are not permitted for these transactions.

Recording a Partial Payment

To record a partial payment, please follow these steps:

  1. Click on Manage > Students.

  2. Locate the student you wish to update and click the Payment icon in their row.

  3. Click Checkout at the bottom of the pop-up.

  4. Ensure that only the fees you wish to pay for are checked.

  5. Modify the total amount paid to reflect the amount of the FIRST payment made.

  6. Check the Partially Paid box.

  7. Note how the payment was received (this is often the check number).

  8. Click Submit External Payment.

Once you complete these steps, the student's Payment icon will be colored yellow on the appropriate sport or activity roster. Additionally, a receipt for the partial payment will be sent to your email address.

Updating a Partial Payment

  4. If the payment is now complete, uncheck the Partial checkbox.

  5. Update the Notes section with the details of the additional payment received.

After updating, the student's icon will change to green on the appropriate sport and activity rosters, indicating that the payment is complete.
