Updating Tuition Charges (Term Fees)

Purpose: Use this document as a reference for updating tuition charges for Student Financials in ctcLink.

Audience: Student Financials staff.

You must have at least one of these local college managed security roles:

  • ZD SACR SF All Config
  • ZD SACR SF Local Config
  • ZZ SACR SF Charges Fees Config

If you need assistance with the above security roles, please contact your local college supervisor or IT Admin to request role access.

Copy Term Fees Forward

The Term Fees can be copied forward to the next quarter before updating the tuition charge amount. This can make for less data entry.

Navigation:  Setup SACR > Product Related > Student Financials > Tuition and Fees > Copy Term Fees

  1. The Copy Term Fees search page displays.
  2. If you have run this process or report in the past, select the Find an Existing Value tab to enter an existing Run Control ID and select the Search button. If this is the first time running this process or report, select the Add a New Value tab to create a new Run Control ID and select the Add button. 
    • NOTE: It is important to note that Run Control IDs cannot be deleted. Do not include spaces in your Run Control. We encourage the Run Control ID to have the same process naming convention but unique to the step; because of this, including your institution code and a short process description in the Run Control ID is recommended--e.g.,  WA010_RUN_CRED_HIST_AR (Peninsula, Run Credit History, User Initials).
  3. The Copy Term Fees page displays.
  4. Under the Parameters section, select Copy All Term Fees from the Copy Options drop-down menu.
  5. Enter the SetID.
  6. Enter the 'copy-from' term in From Term field and then enter the 'copy-to' term in To Term field.
  7. Select Run and then select OK.
  8. Section complete.

You can verify that the Term Fees have been copied by going into the Term Fee and selecting the Term Fee tab. Navigation: Setup SACR > Product Related > Student Financials > Tuition and Fees > Term Fee. You can also run the query CTC_SF_TUITION_SETUP. The query prompts are Business Unit and Term.
