Payment Receipts

Every payment recorded in YeneSchool automatically generates a sequentially numbered receipt (e.g., R-2024-001). Receipts are stored as PDFs and can be reprinted or downloaded at any time.

Viewing and Downloading a Receipt

1. Once the receipt is open, it displays in PDF format in a new browser tab.

!TIP Receipts include the school name, student name, student ID, fee type, amount paid, payment method, date (in Ethiopian Calendar), and the finance officer's name.

!NOTE Receipt numbers are sequential per school and never reused — even if a payment is reversed, the original receipt number is retired.

!WARNING If a receipt shows an incorrect amount due to a data-entry error, do not delete it. Contact your administrator to initiate a payment reversal. A corrected receipt will be issued with a new number.
