School fee management

A clearer view of school fees, from structure to payment.

Authorised administrators manage fee structures and supported offline payment records. Linked parents review fee status and history, with online payment available only when the school configures Razorpay.

Razorpay processes the online transaction under its terms. Its transaction charges remain payable by the school.

Two supported payment branches

One starting point.
Two different paths.

Prepare the school record, then follow the relevant path. Expand any step for its action and outcome.

Start here · School setup

First, the right fee record.

Prepare the class and academic-year structure, then review the relevant student or class status.

  1. Prepare fee structureShared school foundation

    Set the supported structure for the class and academic year.

    School configuration starts the fee workflow.

  2. Review fee statusSchool setup · Authorised administrator

    Open the fee status for follow-up.

    Then record offline or offer parent payment.

Choose the relevant payment path.These are alternatives—not consecutive steps.

Authorised administrator

Record an offline payment.

The school records a supported offline payment against the student’s fee record.

  1. Record offline paymentOffline branch · Administrator

    Record a supported offline payment against the student's fee record.

    It stays at school; Razorpay is not involved.

Linked parent + configured gateway

Pay online when enabled.

The linked parent can continue to online payment only after the school has configured Razorpay. Verification comes before the fee-status update.

  1. Open parent viewOnline branch · Linked parent

    The linked parent reviews the child's due information and history.

    Only configured online payment continues to Razorpay.

  2. Start Razorpay paymentOnline branch · Parent and Razorpay

    The parent starts payment; Schylva creates the order and Razorpay processes checkout under its terms.

    Razorpay charges remain payable by the school.

  3. Verify payment statusOnline branch · Schylva and Razorpay

    Schylva verifies the completed Razorpay payment before updating the fee record.

    It can appear in status and history, but is not a formal receipt or accounting record.

Workflow explanation, not an interactive checkout. Expand a step to read its action and outcome. No payment can be made on this page.

Confirm for your school

One sample structure.
Four useful questions.

Prepare for a 45-minute walkthrough with a redacted or sample structure. Confirm your school’s roles, parent-visible information and whether and how to configure Razorpay.

    Use one redacted or sample class structure.

  2. Who reviews status and records offline payments?

    Name the authorised users and normal process.

  3. Will the school configure Razorpay?

    Online parent payment requires it; provider charges remain separate.

  4. What should the linked parent review?

    List the fee status, history and payment option needed.

A few useful answers

Before your first
fee walkthrough.

What fee-management work can school administrators do in Schylva?

Authorised administrators configure supported fee structures, review class or student status and record supported offline payments.

Can parents pay school fees online through Schylva?

Yes, when the school configures Razorpay. Schylva creates and verifies the order; Razorpay processes the transaction under its terms.

Can the school record offline fee payments?

Yes. Authorised administrators record supported offline payments against the student's fee record. Confirm the exact process during the walkthrough.

Which payment gateway is supported, and who pays its transaction charges?

Schylva supports Razorpay for parent payment. Its charges remain payable by the school; processing is not free and every gateway is not supported.

Does Schylva replace accounting software or provide invoices, refunds or formal receipts?

No. Schylva is not full accounting or a general ledger. Invoices, allocations, concessions, scholarships, refunds, formal receipts and automatic reconciliation are excluded.

Can students pay school fees through Schylva?

No. The supported online-payment journey is for linked parents; student self-payment is not currently available.
