Names, references and printed documents

  • Pupil name order controls the display of given and family names and can be shared with School Mann.
  • School student IDs lets the school label its own reference and optionally prevent duplicates. Every pupil still has a separate system ID.
  • Receipts controls numbering and the post-payment print prompt.
  • Print appearance controls the school branding and document header; check a preview before a batch download.

Notifications and delivery

Review email recipients and Daily report notifications. Confirm the recipients, delivery time, report day, and whether reports should send on days with no collections, weekends or holidays. SMS needs a supported destination and the appropriate available balance or integration. Browser alerts are a separate device permission.

Device security

Use Device security to review the PIN or biometric/passkey options offered on the device. Some sensitive actions request verification again. Keep a way to sign back in through Warmkeys, use individual staff accounts and sign out of shared devices when finished.

When alerts are blocked

Open the browser or device notification settings for School Fees, allow notifications if appropriate, then return to the app to finish registration. On supported phones, installation on the home screen may be required. Dismissing the optional alert prompt does not record a payment, send a message or repair a pupil’s account.
