Slooch

For bursars

Every payment matched to a charge.

For the bursar with arrears nobody can explain, payments nobody can match and the auditor's questions still to answer.

  • A receptionist with a tablet talking to a visitor across a clean white front desk

    Slooch Fees

    Every charge, card payment and EFT is matched and reconciled, a payment shows as paid only once it is matched, and charges and payments go to the school's Xero books.

  • The parent app's family statement listing October school fees, a card payment and the museum trip charge

    Slooch Register

    The register shows who is at school each day, so a learner who has stopped attending is noticed before the next term's charges go out.

  • A woman at a tidy office desk working a calculator beside her computer, a statement under her hand

    Slooch Documents

    Statements go to each family every month without printing, and you see who has opened theirs.

Slooch Register

Every register taken, and the office's view by 08:00.

The register shows who is at school each day, so a learner who has stopped attending is noticed before the next term's charges go out.

How it works

A month of fees, in order

Step 1 of 6

The school portal's trip list for 8B, showing the 14 learners whose trip payment is still outstanding

Step 1

A charge goes out with its notice

The office sends the Grade 8 trip notice with its consent form and its charge. Each family sees the charge under the notice it reads.

Step 2

Families pay by card or EFT

A card payment is matched to its charge as it arrives. An EFT with proof of payment waits in the receipts list until it is matched.
The school portal's Documents screen listing the Term 3 reports for 8B, 24 of 28 opened, and the October fee statements

Step 3

You match what came in

Payments with a reference match on their own; you match the few that do not, and only then does the family's statement show them as paid.

Step 4

A reminder to the unpaid only

The reminder goes to the families who have not paid that charge, and nobody else hears about it.

Step 5

The books stay in step

Charges and payments go to the school's Xero books, so the statement the parent sees is the one you report from.

Step 6

Statements at month-end

Every family gets one statement across all its children, and you see who has opened it.

Questions

Questions bursars ask

Does Slooch replace our accounting package?

No. Slooch sends charges and payments to the school's Xero books, and the books stay there. Slooch is where families see what they owe and pay it, and where you match each payment to its charge.

What happens to an EFT with no reference?

It waits in the receipts list until you match it to a family and a charge. Until then it is not shown as paid, to you or to the family.

Can families pay by debit order?

Not yet. Debit orders are planned. Today families pay by card or EFT, and you can agree an instalment arrangement with a family that Slooch keeps to.
