Setting Up Receivables Maintenance

This chapter discusses how to:

Define origins and group types.
Set up late fees.
Set up late fees - billing.
Set up external file layouts.
Set up item reasons.
Set up payroll deduction.

Defining Origins and Group Types

To define origins and group types, use the Origin Table component (ORIGIN_TABLE) and the Group Type Table component (GROUP_TYPE).

This section provides an overview of origins and group types and discusses how to:

Define origins.
Define group types.

Understanding Origins and Group Types

Before you can perform group data entry using the Maintain Receivables feature, you must define origins and group types.

Origins

Origins represent sources of charges or payments that are used during group posting. You can also apply security at the origin level. This security limits the number of users who can view and update the transactions with which an origin is associated. You can also use the description that you define for an origin as criteria for selecting groups during group data entry.

Group Types

Group types represent sets of frequently posted receivables such as financial aid, housing charges, and lock box payments. You can use the description of a group type as criteria for selecting groups for viewing during group data entry.

Setting Up Late Fees - Billing

This section provides an overview of late fees – billing and discusses how to defining Late Fees - Billing Parameters.

Understanding Late Fees Billing

To supplement the Late Fees process, Campus Solutions offers an alternative Late Fees calculation process

While Late Fees uses past-due amounts, aging categories, or both to calculate late fees, Late Fees - Billing compares the amount due from a specified billing record with the amount of payments or credits on the account. If the payments or credits are less than the amount due, the student is assessed a late fee.

Late Fees - Billing enables you to:

Define which payments or credits are considered in the calculation, using Item Type Group.
Define a threshold amount for which, the account is not assessed the late fee if the unpaid balance is less than this threshold.

Note. You must select either the Late Fees method or the Late Fee — Billing method, but not both, at the Business Unit level as the method for calculating and processing late fees.

Setting Up External File Layouts

To set up external file layouts, use the External File Layouts component (BANK_INPUT_FILE).

This section provides an overview of external file layouts and discusses how to:

Define basic file layout parameters.
Define field positions and lengths.
Define locations and lengths of control data.

Understanding External File Layouts

Student Financials enables you to import charge and payment information from outside sources. For example, many institutions have housing and parking management applications from third-party vendors. Or you may use a lock box service to receive and record payments. This information is imported into the Student Financials application using a file transfer process.

Field Positions and Lengths

Each piece of information in an external file is defined by a starting character position and a field length. Certain types of data (for example date fields) do not require a length definition because they have a fixed length. Consult the data provider to determine the correct definition.

Control Data

You must also set the location and length of the control data. This information is loaded into the Group Control Information. It is used to compare what the data source indicates they have sent to what was actually received, loaded, and posted. Control data also includes the origin code and the currency code. Control data may be located in the file header or trailer.

Setting Up Payroll Deduction

To set up payroll deduction, use the Identify SA Deduction Codes component (SSF_SA_DED_TBL), the Create Deduction Relationship component (SF_PAYDED_RELATION), and the Create Payment Plans component (TP_PAYMENT_PLAN).

This section provides an overview of payroll deduction and discusses how to:

Define payroll deduction codes.
Define payroll deduction relationships.
Assign payroll deduction codes to payment plans.

Understanding Payroll Deduction

Student Financials enables university employees to pay tuition, fees, and other educational expenses through payroll deductions. For applicable employees, PeopleSoft Payroll for North America calculates the payroll deductions to be used to pay student charges. Student Financials then takes those payroll deductions and applies them as payments to the appropriate student accounts. You also can restrict the payroll deduction payment to a payment plan account. In addition, this new feature enables you to apply payroll deductions from one employee to the account of a student with a different ID. This allows, for example, a university employee, who has a dependent who attends that same university, to have deductions from his paycheck apply to his dependent's student account.

Note. Close coordination between your PeopleSoft Payroll for North America and Student Financials staff is crucial to properly process payroll deductions.

Deduction Code	Enter the appropriate deduction code.

Defining Payroll Deduction Relationships

Access the Payroll Deduction Relationship page (Student Financials, Charges and Payments, Payroll Deduction Processing, Create Deduction Relationship, Payroll Deduction Relationship).

Defining payroll deduction relationships for an employee, specifying the recipients of the employee's payroll deductions is optional.

The page displays the ID of the employee whose pay is being deducted. The name of the employee appears to the left.

Deduction Code	Enter the code of the payroll deduction that the system applies to the recipient.
Related ID	Enter the ID of the student whom you want to receive the deducted funds.
Expiration Date	Enter the date after which deducted funds no longer apply to the account of the student selected in the Related ID field. After this date, the system applies any payroll deductions to the account of the employee whose pay is being deducted.

Note. You can define only one related ID per deduction code. Defining a payroll deduction relationship is necessary only to apply a deduction to someone other than the employee receiving the payroll deduction. If an employee's payroll deduction is to be applied to his or her own student account, do not complete this page for that employee.

Assigning Payroll Deduction Codes to Payment Plans

Access the Payment Plan 1 page (Student Financials, Payment Plans, Create Payment Plan). In the Payroll Deduction field, enter the code of the payroll deduction that applies to the payment plan account.

Note. Assigning a payroll deduction code to a payment plan is necessary only if you plan to restrict payroll deductions to apply to payment plan accounts.
