What happens if I remove Payment and Receipt permissions for Admin?

Modified on Thu, 27 Feb at 11:10 PM

The addition of the Payment & Receipt page provides enhanced functionality, allowing for greater control over invoice and payment management. However, it's important to understand the effects of adjusting the permission settings for the Payment & Receipt module.

These permission settings are only applicable to Admin users and do not extend to Teacher Permissions. By modifying these settings, you can limit or restrict access to various features.

How to Access Payment & Receipt Permissions


To adjust the Payment & Receipt settings, follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to the Personnel module.

  2. Go to the Admin Permissions section.

  3. You will find the Payment & Receipt module listed here.

By default, the permissions for View, Create, Update, and Delete are enabled. When any of these permissions are disabled, certain buttons and features will either be hidden or restricted based on the selected settings. Here’s what will happen if you remove specific permissions for the Payment & Receipt module.

Effects of Removing Permissions for Payment & Receipt


1. Removing the "View" Permission

If you untick the "View" permission for the Payment & Receipt module, the Admin will be restricted from accessing several key features:

  • View Payment & Receipt Menu: Admin will no longer see the Payment & Receipt option under the Options button on the Invoices page.

  • View and Edit Receipt: The Admin will be unable to access the View and Edit Receipt options or download receipts in PDF format for Paid/Partially Paid invoices.

  • Edit Receipt Menu: The Edit Receipt option will be unavailable under the Actions button on the student's Invoices & Payment subpage, within the Paid Invoices table.

2. Removing the "Create" Permission

Disabling the "Create" permission prevents the Admin from performing any of the following actions:

  • Pay Invoice: Admin will lose the ability to use the Pay Invoice menu under the Actions button on the Student page and the Invoices & Payment subpage for Unpaid invoices.

  • Outstanding Invoice Label: The Outstanding Invoice label on the Take Attendance page will be inaccessible.

  • Create Payment: The Admin will no longer be able to use the Save & Create Payment button in the View and Edit Invoice page, or the Create Payment option in the Payment & Receipt page.

3. Removing the "Update" Permission

When the "Update" permission is removed, the Admin will lose the ability to update existing payment and receipt records:

  • Update Receipt: Admin will not be able to click the Update button on the View & Update Receipt page, which is accessible from:

    • The Paid Invoices table on the student's Invoices & Payment subpage.

    • The Partially Paid and Paid Invoices on the Invoice page.

    • By clicking on the Receipt No. in the Payment & Receipt page.

4. Removing the "Delete" Permission

Removing the "Delete" permission will prevent the Admin from deleting payment or receipt records:

  • Delete Receipt: Admin will be unable to click the Delete button on the View & Update Receipt page. This applies to:

    • The Paid Invoices table on the student's Invoices & Payment subpage.

    • The Partially Paid and Paid Invoices on the Invoice page.

    • Clicking on the Receipt No. in the Payment & Receipt page.

  • Delete Receipt Menu: Admin will no longer be able to use the Delete Receipt option under the Actions button for Partially Paid or Paid invoices in the Invoices page, or when clicking on a receipt number in the Payment & Receipt page.
