Date based course fees
National Admins can now add separate course fees for courses that start within a specified date range. As an example, if fee changes are slated to take effect on a certain date in the future, these can now be set up under System Settings > Manage Course Fees.
This ensures that when courses are announced, they take on the correct fee based on what the course start date is.
Ability to search contacts who have not done specific courses
Often, country admins need to search contacts who have not completed certain courses to better target their marketing efforts (emails / phone calls). For example, they may want to retrieve a list of all contacts who have not done a Silence course in the last 6 months. This is now possible by using this newly added criteria: “Course not attended” under Advanced Contact Search.
Participants' response to fee level related questions available in exported file
When participants select a fee level other than “Regular” to register for a course, they are asked a few additional questions. Their response to these questions is now available in the exported participant list.
This allows organizers / teachers to view their response and, if needed, contact the participant for any clarification and / or to establish eligibility for the fee level selected by the participant.
Ability to prevent selection of offline methods on assisted registration page
Certain countries want to restrict the payment options to online methods only, even for assisted registration. The offline methods (for example: cash, check) available on the assisted registration page can now be disabled for any organization.
This allows the country admins to ensure all revenues are collected online, thereby reducing their administrative burden and also that of teachers / organizers, who no longer need to remember to deposit the revenue that would have been collected by offline methods.
This feature can be enabled for your organization by contacting the support team by raising a ticket.
Automatic addition of honorarium as an expense on CAF
Organizations that pay honorarium to their teachers as a % of the course revenue can choose to get the honorarium amount automatically added as an expense on the CAF, where the total amount is split equally among all the teachers of that course. The CAF reviewer can adjust these amounts if needed.
This reduces the burden on teachers / organizers / Finance Admins to have to calculate the honorarium amounts and then add them manually on the CAF as an expense item for each teacher.
This feature can be enabled for your organization by contacting the support team by raising a ticket.
