  2. Click Teachers.
  3. The teachers menu will expand and then click Payments.
  4. Select a teacher.
  5. Select the “Settlements” card.
  6. Click “Settle”.

After you click the “Settle” button you will need to put in the dates that you want to calculate the teacher’s pay for and the settlement type.

Settlement Type

What is the difference between a bill and an invoice?

What is the difference between “Save & Close” and “Next”?

If you choose “Save & Close” the system will create neither a Bill nor an Invoice, but just calculate the amount to be settled. Later by clicking on the relevant icon you can finish creating the Bill or registering the Invoice.

 

Bills and invoices

If you click “Next”, the system will show the settlement as either a Bill or Invoice in SchoolMate.

Contracts Card:

On this card you can add contracts for work that will be used in the teacher’s settlement. These agreements can be for long term employment, task related or anything else you wish to create.

These contracts are created and held here.

To add a contract go to the contract card and click “Add”:

Now select the agreement that applies from the drop-down:

  1. Enter the relevant dates.
  2. Select the agreement that applies.
  3. Click Save & Close.
