Read the accountant's dashboard: what needs action, dues by age, overdue by class, cheques in clearing, bounced cheques, refunds and reminders.

Fees · How to · Last checked 2026-10-19

Open Fees > Accounts overview. It greets you by name and shows the institution you are in. Each panel says as of when its numbers are.

The panels

  • Needs action: tiles for the things to do today, for example cheques in clearing with their amount and how many days the oldest has waited, and refunds. Press View list on a tile to go to the records.
  • Dues by age: the current year's balance split by how many days past the due date. It also shows what is not due yet and the arrears from earlier years.
  • Overdue by class (in an ITI, by programme): which classes owe most.
  • Cheques in clearing: cheques that are not cleared yet, with mode, number, bank and date. Here you can clear or bounce a cheque.
  • Bounced cheques: a bounced cheque is not counted as paid.
  • Refunds paid, last 30 days: the refunds made, with date, mode and reference. A refund at leaving a hostel is marked "Settlement at leaving".
  • Reminders sent: how many fee reminders were delivered, failed or are waiting.

If a panel says "No data yet", nothing has been recorded for it. The reason is shown under it.

What to do next

Common questions

A cheque shows here after it was cleared.

Press the clear action on the cheque. The panels refresh after that.

The numbers differ from my report.

Each panel names its "as of" time. Check that you compare the same date and the same academic year.
