Use

The fee calculation date you enter determines which fee calculation periods the system uses as a basis for fee calculation. The system checks if this fee calculation date is within the start and end dates of a fee calculation period. It then calculates the fees for all of the fee calculations periods within this interval.

In addition, the fee calculation date and the processing mode for fee calculation together determine if the system will calculate the actual fees or the expected fees. When the system calculates the expected fees, it uses the previous fee calculation period as the basis for calculation.

Examples

You have created the following fee calculation periods:

Calc.period    Start date    End date    Acad. year    Acad. session

0001    01.01.2004    30.06.2004    2004    Summer semester

0002    01.07.2004    31.12.2004    2004    Winter semester

If you enter 01.03.2004 as the fee calculation date, the system uses fee calculation period 0001 as a basis for fee calculation. This fee calculation period is assigned to summer semester 2004.

Further notes

When you post the fee calculation result, the system uses the system date as the posting date and not the fee calculation date.
