New
DebitSuceess integration
You can now create payment plans through a DebitSuccess integration in JR Plus.
Payments through DebitSuccess will be automatically passed back to JR Plus. There is a Close Payment Plan button if you wish to stop the Payment Plan in DebitSuccess prior to payments for all instalments being received.
Contact the support team if you would like the new Payment Plan feature turned on. See https://help-education.readytech.io/support/solutions/articles/51000312970-debit-success-overview and https://help-education.readytech.io/support/solutions/articles/51000312994-process-creating-a-payment-plan for more details on configuring and using the integration.

TCSI : Student Status Inheritance
A new “-- Use Enrolment Value --” option is now available in the Student Status drop-down on enrolled units of study. Using this option will inherit the Student Status from the enrolment, making it easier to manage if most of the subjects in an enrolment have the same Student Status. When this option is used, a “purple dot” on the Student Status field will indicate that the value is being inherited from the enrolment. The ability to bulk update the Student Status on enrolled units of study has also been added to the Subjects tab in the Progress Centre.
Payment Terms
An additional field for Payment Terms has been included in the Create Invoice modal on the Smart Fees Invoicing page. Payment Due Terms field has new validation to ensure the value is between 0 and 500
VSL Eligibility Check
We have updated the VFH/VSL Eligibility check logic so it correctly checks the Citizenship Status field instead of the Nationality field. This is to ensure students who are Australian citizens will be considered eligible regardless of their Nationality.
Create Payments Page
We have added a new column for “Deferred” amount on the create payments page. This will make it easier to make payments on invoices where an amount has been deferred and is not expected to be paid yet.
API updates
New endpoints were added to return duplicate parties to match the functionality of Duplicate Manager in the UI. Users can check for duplicates against an individual party or return all duplicates.
Improved date field entry for various date type fields on the USI Create and Verification workflows.
