This section provides an overview of group data entry discusses how to:
Define source information and control totals for group transactions.
Add transactions to a group entry.
Student Financials enables you to post transactions for a group of students or organizations. This enables you to quickly and easily post many receivables without having to post and approve each one individually. Student Financial Cashiering Office has the option to create Group Data entries. In addition, charges and payments from external sources can be loaded through the SF External File Load process and these transactions will populate the Group Data Entry tables.
To enter groups of transactions for students and organizations, access the pages using the Group Data Entry and Group Corp Data Entry components, respectively. To approve groups of transactions, use the same two pages, but access them from the worklist.

Running the Select Payroll Deduction Process
When you run the Select Payroll Deduction (SFPAYDED) process, the system scans the PS_PAY_DEDUCTION table in Payroll for North America for any payroll deduction records with the deduction codes that you designated to use with Student Financials. If these records have not already been selected in a previous process run, the system moves them to the PS_PAY_DED_PROC staging table.
Note. To run this process properly, you must have a working knowledge of Payroll for North America functionality. Consult your payroll staff for more information about how to define the parameters of this process and when to run it.

To reconcile deduction records that have not been processed into the group post tables, create a query that checks the PS_PAY_DED_PROC table for blank values in BUSINESS_UNIT, GROUP_ID_SF, EMPLID_RELATED, and where PROCESS_FLAG = N.
Access the Payroll Deduction Group Creation page.
Parameters
Enter the Business Unit, Origin ID, Group Type, and Term that the system assigns to the group transaction that you are creating. If you are restricting payroll deductions to pay payment plan contract charges, select the Use Payment Plan check box.
Deduction Code Selection

Select the Benefit Plan Type to restrict the selection of available deduction codes. |
Deduction Code |

Item Type |
For each deduction code that you are adding to a posting group, select the payment item type that the system uses when posting the associated deductions to student accounts. |
Click the button to run the Payroll Deduction Group Create (SF_PAY_DED) process. |
The process creates a group transaction for any payroll deductions in the PS_PAY_DED_PROC staging table that match the run control criteria and have not been included in a previous posting group. If you do not select the Use Payment Plan check box, the system ignores the payment plan contract information that is associated with accounts receiving deduction funds. If you select the Use Payment Plan check box and you assigned deduction codes to the appropriate payment plan contracts, then for any students who are linked to those contracts, the system includes contract information in the group line entry.
On the Group Entry page, the Payroll Deduction Group Create (SF_PAY_DED) process sets the posting action of the created group to Available for Posting. On the Group Line Entry page, the Payroll Deduction Group Create (SF_PAY_DED) process selects the Restrict Payment to Account check box for students who are linked to an eligible payment plan contract. On the Payment Details page, the Payroll Deduction Group Create process populates the Contract # field for group line entries that restricted to payment plan accounts.
Note. The system applies payroll deductions to payment plan accounts only if you assign deduction codes to the appropriate payment plan contracts and you select the Use Payment Plan check box when running the Payroll Deduction Group Create (SF_PAY_DED) process. You can also use the charge priority list to restrict your payroll deduction payments to specific charges.

When Payroll for North America reverses a prior payroll deduction, it results in a deduction with a negative amount. Student Financials cannot link the negative deduction amount to the original posted deduction. The system selects these negative deductions through the Select Payroll Deduction (SFPAYDED) process. However, when you run the Payroll Deduction Group Create (SF_PAY_DED) process on negative deductions, the system enters them into the posting tables as a group with a Posting Action of Do Not Post and a Posting Status of Errors. Because you cannot post these negative deductions using the normal method, you must manually resolve the affected student accounts.
Note. If the Payroll Deduction Group Create (SF_PAY_DED) process encounters both negative and positive deductions, it creates two separate posting groups, one for the negative deductions, and one for the positive deductions.
You can run the Payment Applier process to allocate unapplied payments to eligible charges that are still owing. The process applies payments to both student and corporate accounts. Payment swapping might occur if a priority payment is applied.

If it becomes impossible to collect a receivable, you can write off the receivable by moving the charge within your general ledger from your receivable or collections account to your write-off account. The system adds the write-off service indicator to the customer’s account and applies the restrictions that you defined for write-off customers.
If you process a write-off by mistake, or if a customer agrees to pay a debt that you already wrote off, Student Financials enables you to reverse a write-off.

This section provides an overview of enrollment cancellation and discusses how to:
Define student selection criteria for enrollment cancellation.
Define charges, offsetting payments, cancellation options, and service indicators for enrollment cancellation.
The Enrollment Cancellation process selects students for enrollment cancellation when they are past due on their fee payments. You can set up the system to cancel individual classes within a term, individual classes within a session, cancel the entire term, or cancel the entire session for students who meet the past due requirements that you define. You can apply enrollment cancellation criteria to all students in your institution or only to students in specific tuition groups or academic programs. You have the flexibility to define enrollment cancellation rules that meet the specific needs of your institution.
The Enrollment Cancellation process in the Student Financials application selects only students for cancellation. The actual cancellation process is completed in PeopleSoft Student Records using the Student Records Term Withdrawal process (SRPCWDPR).

Cancellation Type
Define which enrollments are canceled by running the process. The cancellation type works in conjunction with the Cancel Completed Classes and Cancel Classes With Grades check boxes on the Enrollment Cancellation 2 page to determine what type of request the Enrollment Cancellation process generates for a student.
Term Cancellation |
Select this option to cancel all the classes that a student is taking for a term. If you select this option and you also select the Cancel Completed Classes and/or the Cancel Classes With Grades check boxes, the Enrollment Cancellation process generates a term cancellation request for each selected student. If you select this option, and you do not select the Cancel Completed Classes or the Cancel Classes With Grades check boxes, and a student has either completed a class or has a graded class, the Enrollment Cancellation process generates an enrollment request with an action of drop for the student's uncompleted and ungraded classes, instead of a term cancellation request. If you select this option, you do not select the Cancel Completed Classes or the Cancel Classes With Grades check boxes, and the student has no completed or graded classes, the Enrollment Cancellation process generates a term cancellation request. |
Session Cancellation |
Select this option to cancel all the classes that a student is taking for a session. If you select this option and you also select the Cancel Completed Classes and/or the Cancel Classes With Grades check boxes, the Enrollment Cancellation process generates a session cancellation request for each selected student. If you select this option, and you do not select the Cancel Completed Classes or the Cancel Classes With Grades check boxes, and a student has either completed a class or has a graded class, the Enrollment Cancellation process generates an enrollment request with an action of drop for the student's uncompleted and ungraded classes instead of a session cancellation request. If you select this option, you do not select the Cancel Completed Classes or the Cancel Classes With Grades check boxes, and the student has no completed or graded classes, the Enrollment Cancellation process generates a session cancellation request. |
Class by Class Within Term |
Select this option to cancel individual classes within a term If you select this option and you also select the Cancel Completed Classes and/or the Cancel Classes With Grades check boxes, the Enrollment Cancellation process generates an enrollment request with an action of drop. The system drops each class in the term, one by one, until the past due amount is less than the Subsequent Amount that you specify. If the request results in all classes being dropped for a student, then the process generates a term cancellation request. If you select this option, and you do not select the Cancel Completed Classes or the Cancel Classes With Grades check boxes, and a student has either completed a class or has a graded class, the Enrollment Cancellation process generates an enrollment request with an action of drop for the student's uncompleted and ungraded classes. The system drops each class, one by one, until the past due amount is less than the Subsequent Amount. If you select this option, and you do not select the Cancel Completed Classes or the Cancel Classes With Grades check boxes, and the student has no completed or graded classes, the Enrollment Cancellation process generates an enrollment request with an action of drop, dropping each class, one by one, until the past due amount is less than the Subsequent Amount. If the request results in all classes being dropped for a student, then the process generates a term cancellation request. |
Class by Class Within Session |
Select this option to cancel individual classes within a session If you select this option and you select the Cancel Completed Classes and/or the Cancel Classes With Grades check boxes, the Enrollment Cancellation process generates an enrollment request with an action of drop. The system drops each class in the session, one by one, until the past due amount is less than the Subsequent Amount you specify. If the request results in all classes being dropped for a student, then the process generates a session cancellation request. If you select this option, and you do not select the Cancel Completed Classes or the Cancel Classes With Grades check boxes, and a student has either completed a class or has a graded class, the Enrollment Cancellation process generates an enrollment request with an action of drop for the student's uncompleted and ungraded classes. The system drops each class, one by one, until the past due amount is less than the Subsequent Amount. If you select this option, and you do not select the Cancel Completed Classes or the Cancel Classes With Grades check boxes, and the student has no completed or graded classes, the Enrollment Cancellation process generates an enrollment request with an action of drop, dropping each class, one by one, until the past due amount is less than the Subsequent Amount. If the request results in all classes being dropped for a student, then the process generates a session cancellation request. |

Selection Criteria
Select which students you want to review for enrollment cancellation processing.
All |
Select this option to review all students in the business unit who meet the criteria that you specify. If you select this option, the Tuition Group and Academic Program fields are not available. |
Tuition Group |
Select this option to review students within a specific tuition group. |
Academic Program |
Select this option to review students within a specific academic program. |
Aging Criteria
By Date |
Select this option and enter a date to indicate that any student with a past due amount on the specified payment date should be selected for enrollment cancellation. |
By Days |
Select this option and enter the number of days to indicate that any student with a past due amount for the number of days specified should be selected for enrollment cancellation. |
Past Due Amounts
Initial Amount |
Enter the initial amount past due that places a student in the enrollment cancellation process. Students with amounts past due that are lower than the initial amount are not selected. |
Subsequent Amount |
The subsequent amount field is available only when the Class by Class Within Term or Class by Class Within Session option is chosen. The system uses this information to automatically cancel classes one by one until the amount past due is less than the subsequent amount. |
Example of the Class by Class Cancellation Process with Subsequent Amount
A student enrolls in four classes at a cost of 300 USD per class, but only pays 300 USD. For enrollment cancellation purposes, the initial amount is 600 USD and the subsequent amount is 350 USD. The system selects the student as eligible for enrollment cancellation because the amount past due is 900 USD (this amount exceeds the specified initial amount). The first class cancelled lowers the amount past due to 600 USD. Because this figure is still higher than the subsequent amount of 350 USD, the system cancels a second class, which brings the amount past due to 300 USD. Because this figure is lower than the Subsequent Amount, no further classes are cancelled.
