Family billing

More about this

The pages, in order: Invoices, Payments, Bank deposits, Family accounts, Fee subsidy, Reports and Billing settings. The fees are the first part of Billing settings, and the CWELCC year is one of the Reports. Someone who records payments sees Payments, Families and Reports. The dashboard's to-do items open the right page.

Who may do what is set by an owner on Logins and access, in a person's access dialog:

• "Bills families (fees, invoices and payments from families)": an administrator who does the billing, with every change an owner can make here except reopening a closed month, the opening balances, sending the details for Zūm Rails and setting the payout days and the reserve, which stay with the owners.
• "Reads family billing": a bookkeeper (an administrator or an office staff member) who reads every family's account, invoices, payments and the reports, and changes nothing.
• "Records payments", under "Reads family billing": someone who records the payments families make outside KeepCount (e-Transfers, cheques, cash) and matches them to families. They never issue, credit, refund or reverse.

If you only read family billing, Invoices says so; if you record payments, Payments does. Anyone else who opens it reads "Family billing is for the owners, and the people an owner allows under Logins and access." KeepCount support can read family billing in a support session and never changes it.

In a demonstration, a line under each page's heading says the families, invoices and amounts are fictional and nothing is sent to anyone.
