# Fees

To get started, users can initiate the fee creation process by clicking on the "Add fee" button in a straightforward three-step procedure:

1. Begin by entering all the necessary details for the fee you intend to create. Once all details are provided, save the update.
2. After completing this step, the newly created fee will be immediately visible on the fees page, ready for further actions.
3. For additional actions related to a specific fee, select the fee of your choice. This selection will lead you to a dedicated page where you can perform various actions.

On this actions page, choose your desired actions by clicking the corresponding checkboxes. Once you've selected the checkboxes, proceed to the top of the page, where you'll find an 'Actions' button.

Click on this 'Actions' button to reveal a dropdown menu with a range of available options. Among these options, you'll find the 'Publish Fee' feature. When you select this action, you'll be prompted to specify the name of the fee you wish to publish.

Once you've entered the fee name and confirmed your intent by clicking on 'Yes, Publish,' the designated fees will be made accessible to the intended students. These students will receive notifications prompting them to make the required payments, conveniently accessible through their student dashboards.

Subsequently, to monitor payments and distinguish between students who have paid and those who haven't, simply select the fee you wish to track. You'll then be directed to a page where the system automatically separates students who have made payments from those who still need to settle the fee.
