10 D. Student Miscellaneous Ledger Finances > Misc Ledger Tuesday Sessions o Select a student from the drop down list. Remember your Filters! This is a very powerful screen, with six different transaction functions available to you: o Deposit: Collect money from a student for miscellaneous purposes. o Withdraw: Refund money to a student for miscellaneous purposes. o Credits: Add credits to the student ledger without money. o Billing: Bill money to a student for miscellaneous purposes o Transfer: Transfer money to other ledgers to pay fixed payments, trips or fundraisers o Bill & Collect: A fast way to enter completed transactions. o Entering Transactions on the various sections follow the same conventions as the other transaction screens. Select a date, a bank ledger if needed, a budget line if needed, enter a check number, deposit number, etc. o We recommend that you do not use this screen if a student earns money from a fundraiser or pays for a trip or fixed payments. Use the fundraiser, trip, or fixed payment screens instead. It s faster and easier that way. o This screen is generally used when a student has miscellaneous money to deposit, such as trip overages or private lesson payments, or needs to collect money paid towards fixed payments that can t be paid in full. However, many Charms users will use this screen exclusively for student finance information. Transferring Money o To transfer money collected to another ledger, select Transfer Money. o Transfer Money To: The fixed payments owed, trip balances, fundraising balances, and all your other students are listed in the drop down list. Select the ledger to which you want to transfer money. o Enter the amount you want to transfer. (If you selected a fixed payment you do not need to enter the amount.) If there is not enough money in the account to transfer, you will be notified. o Click Transfer to record the transfer transaction. Entries are made in the appropriate ledger and a negative entry is posted to the student s miscellaneous ledger, but money is not posted again to any bank ledger. An entry is made in the Audit Trail to show the transfer.

11 o If you want to transfer money to pay multiple fixed payments in one trip, click the link to Transfer Multiple Fixed Payments. Check the payments you wish to pay. The total will automatically display in the amount box. Click Transfer to record your transfers. Setup Student Miscellaneous Items o Finances > Misc. Ledger > Setup Misc. Items o Charms provides an easy way to bill students for miscellaneous items that do not necessarily need to be setup as Fixed Payments. This is generally used for recurring items such as reeds and other accessories, lost items, repairs, cleaning, etc. You can create a name for this billing item, and select it on the Student Miscellaneous Ledger screen to bill to a student. Miscellaneous items are not tracked through the Charms fixed payment reporting system. o Simply enter the name for the item, and the amount of the item. o Once entered, Charms displays a list of your miscellaneous items at the bottom of the screen. Click the pencil icon to modify the item, click the X to delete the item. Changing the amount of the item will not adjust exiting bills or payments. Globally Posting Payments or Credits o Finances > Misc Ledgers > Global Collect Money o To save time, you can enter one description and post money to several students at once. Remember your Filters! Example: 22 students participate in a carwash and earn various amounts of money. You can enter the amounts in the white box for each student, and post the money as one deposit to the appropriate bank ledger. o You can also use this screen to post non-money credits to a student s ledger when no money has been exchanged. Example: The booster club wishes to give a scholarship to 10 students. The money has already been accumulated in the bank ledgers. Enter the amounts in the white box, and choose Don t Post Money so the transactions will only add to their balances without affecting the bank balance. o You can also use this screen to post bills of different amounts to several students at once. Example: Several students were caught spraying graffiti on the playground and will be fined $10 for each letter they sprayed. Enter a negative number in the white boxes for the appropriate students, choose Don t Post Money so the transactions will only post the bill and not affect the bank balance.

12 Global Billing (all same amount) o When you are billing many students for the same thing, whether a miscellaneous item you already created, or a random amount, select the item by name and enter the quantity OR enter a description and enter the amount. o Click the switch next to the student to receive the bill. Remember your Filters! Click Enter to record your bills. Reviewing Student Financial History o Finances > Misc.
