How do I get started with fee collection and configure mandatory fee settings?

To begin fee collection in NextOS, you must configure the core fee components used for assigning mandatory fees to students.

Navigate to Settings > Finance > Fee and Create

• Student Fee Category – Defines student fee categories (e.g., New, Old, RTE, etc.).
• Fee Type – Defines the fee heads (e.g., Tuition Fee, Lab Fee, Transport Fee).
• Fee Schedule – Defines the installments or EMI pattern (e.g., Monthly, Quarterly, Term-wise).
• Fee Structure – Maps fee heads to the selected category and assigns the installment and amount.
• Fee Autonumbering – Defines the numbering sequence for fee receipts.
• Fee Receipt Template – Maps a receipt template for generating downloadable PDF receipts.

You can watch the video tutorial for a complete walkthrough of this configuration flow before initiating fee collection.
