Invoicing
Invoices are the financial records sent to guardians at the start of each term, showing the fees owed for their child.
Prerequisites
Before generating invoices, ensure you have:
- Fee structures configured for the current term
- All students enrolled in their classes
Generating Invoices (Bulk)
The recommended approach is to generate invoices in bulk for the whole school or a class at once.
- Go to Finance → Invoices.
- Click Generate Invoices.
- Select:
- Term — the term to invoice for
- Scope — All classes, or a specific class
- Click Preview to review the invoice summary before committing.
- Review the count and total amount.
- Click Generate to create invoices for all selected students.
note
EMS will not generate duplicate invoices. If a student already has an invoice for the selected term, they are skipped.
Viewing Invoices

The invoice list shows all invoices with their status:
| Status | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Unpaid | No payment received |
| Partially Paid | Some payment received, balance outstanding |
| Paid | Invoice fully settled |
| Overdue | Past due date with outstanding balance |
Use the filters (term, class, status) to narrow the list.
