Functions you can Turn on/off for your Parent Portal
You can allow your Customer to log in to the portal and make a partial payment to an invoice.
This allows the customer to select an invoice(s) and pay a different amount than the Balance Due for the selected invoices.
The screen above shows the customer can select an invoice and then enter a Pay Other Amount to not pay the balance in full for that invoice. If more than 1 invoice is selected. The payment will be applied in full to the oldest due and partial pay the other invoice if the amount is greater than the balance of the 1st invoice.
For example: If the customer selects a Tuition invoice due 3/1/18 with a balance of 75.00 and an invoice for a costume balance due 1/18/18 with a balance of 25.00, then enters a Pay Other Amount of 80. The costume will be paid in full and the tuition will have a balance of 20.00
