Enhancements done in “Release 26/11/2023” are listed below:

Main Feature

Enhancement Details

Xero integration

  • The agent bonus can now be sent as a new line item in the agent commission bill to Xero from Meshed. This is done as a recent enhancement where the bonus can be sent  along with the bill and the payment to Xero. 

  • The description for the Tuition Fee and Miscellaneous invoices are now maintained and not overwritten for paid, updated and unpaid invoices. 

  • The invoice Date now goes as the Invoice Start Date in Xero and the Invoice Due Date is the due date for the related invoice in Meshed. 

  • Agent Bill will now have the invoice date and due date as per the related tuition fee invoice.

  • Agent Bill and Commission payment can now be sent together from the agent commission page using a single button

Compliance

Exit Award: For HigherEd clients who are doing TCSI HEP or PIR reporting, they can now report Exit Award or Nested Award packets to TCSI via TCSI HEP/TCSI PIR reporting page. This new packet is available under the submission type dropdown. 

Compliance

TPS logic fix: Tuition protection Scheme is now renamed as Tuition Protection Service. And the logic that the maximum upfront fee allowed to charge for course duration greater than 24 weeks is 50% of actual fee has been updated to duration of 25 weeks or more. This is a validation message when updating or inserting upfront fee. 

Compliance

This enhancement is done on the course subject setup and the student enrolment edit page to allow user to enter the EFTSL value for a subject between a range of 0.000000001 to 9.999999999. Previously, the system used to allow the value between 0-1 only.

The reason behind the change is some subjects may run across semesters so will have more EFTSL value than 1. But the overall sum of EFTSL value of subjects should be always less or equal to Course's study load.

Timetable

The enhancement is done under the Import class feature. When importing the class timetable, the system used to accept the incorrect data and record it in the system without any validation.

The validation has now been placed so that the system imports the correct data only.

Scholarship

This enhancement is done to simplify the calculation of invoice processing amount.

If the student scholarship record is linked to the invoiceId, while processing the linked invoice on the student payment summary page, the system auto-calculates the remaining invoice amount i.e., remaining amount = Invoiced amount – Invoice Credit (if any) – Scholarship – Paid (if any). 

Report

A new report “Student: Student Course Payments Summary by Course and Status (Including Tuition and Misc Fees)” has been added under Category: Account. This report will bring overall summary of the payment (paid and unpaid) till the report date specific to the course, and also the overall Student Credit information recorded against the Student.
