ParentPay: Childcare Vouchers with ParentPay Online Payments

How to process Childcare Vouchers in Tali when you use ParentPay for online payments

Updated this week

Childcare vouchers are credited to an organisation's bank account periodically and need to be processed correctly in Tali so that you can reconcile these back to your bank statements.

How to process these through Tali/ParentPay;

  1. When you see Childcare Vouchers on your bank statement>Enter into Tali as a Direct Credit/BACS to the bank account credited on the date the funds credited the bank account and repeat with each credit on the bank statement;

2. This allows you to>Reconcile a Bank Statement in Tali

3. Post these same credits to ParentPay as a credit adjustment so the parent can see the transaction has been entered against the correct payment item, these will flow through to Tali as an ADJUSTMENT and will need to be cancelled in Tali as the credits have already been entered in Step 1 and allocated to the pupil/account already.

What are Adjustments?

You might make an adjustment in ParentPay to show a parent that you have contributed to a trip, had childcare vouchers, moved a payment from one trip to another or moved a balance between siblings and as such these are not actual transactions and when these are imported into Tali you will need to search for them and cancel them, especially before you do your year-end in your Pebble software.

Please go to Transactions>Cancel Income or Expenditure transaction

Filter for>Adjustment (all the ParentPay adjustments should display - ones in capitals only ADJUSTMENT to be cancelled)

Check these transactions and then>Tick the boxes for each item or flood fill from the top to check them all

Click>Continue

Enter>A Reason - Adjustments in ParentPay not required in Pebble

>Cancel transactions
