The system allows administrators and centers the ability to Pre-Bill families with new registrations. This process is only done during registration and can help determine how much a family will be charged during the middle of a month.
Please Note: this process is only applicable for families that register for a program during the middle of the month. If a family registers for a program in April, the Pre-Bill process will charge the family the assigned rate for April, and then they will continue on the normal rate for May. This process must be setup before a family registers for a classroom.
