Issue with Account History in Student Billing #106

Closed BereaSchool closed 4 years ago

BereaSchool commented 5 years ago

Please take a look at student 1533 as example. We issued the student a refund (scholarship). On bill for the 19/WO term, the «student bill» page reflects the refund and end balance correctly. However, when we view the Account History page for the same student, the balance is incorrect because refunds are not listed. Can this be fixed please?

Thank you!

Any updates on this issue? Thank you!

The code will need to be reevaluated to allow refunds in the calculation on the Account History screen. But on a different note, I believe that when you are issuing a scholarship, that should fall under payments. A refund is when money is given to the student because extra funds are available on the account after all tuition and fees have been paid for in a given term. In this instance, the money is placed on the student's account (in the form of a scholarship) instead of being given directly to the student via a check or cash.

That is a good suggestion and best practice. Thank you.
