In Responsible Parties you can add, edit, or delete any individual who is financially responsible for a student. The grid view will display each Responsible Party Code, Name, Active Status, and Actions.
You can print or download a list of Responsible Parties using the printer or Excel icons on the right, above the grid view.
The grid view will display the first 15 Responsible Parties by default, and any additional responsible party will be displayed in separate pages. There is a count for how many responsible parties are available and how many are being displayed on the page out of those available. The arrows can be used to move between pages.
You can search for Responsible Parties using their Code or Name.
You can also search by toggling the Active status to All, Yes, or No. All will show All Responsible Parties whether they are active or not. Yes will show only those Responsible Parties that ARE active. No will show only those Responsible Parties that are NOT Active.
To add a Responsible Party, click on the Add Responsible Party button on the top right. Here you can add the Responsible Party’s Full Name and click the Active checkbox. The contact tab allows us to fill out their address and contact email. Click Save and close to save and return to the Responsible Parties page.
Import – This is where you would import responsible parties from a CSV file. This would be useful if you have a list of all the responsible parties and want to import all at once. This process has four steps:
- Select File – On this step you can browse your computer for the CSV file to be imported. There are two blue hyperlinks where you can download a template CSV file with the correct headings prepared for import and specifications for formatting of an import file. Next will advance you to the next step of the import process and Cancel will cancel the process without saving any progress.
- Verification – On this step you can verify the data that will be imported. If you scroll to the right there is a message column that allows you do see if you have an error. Next will advance you to the next step of the import process.
- Processing – This step will execute the import of responsible party very quicky.
