Overview

Use Manage Attachments in the SchoolCash Catalog to detach students from an item when the attachment should no longer apply to them (for example, a student dropped a course or is no longer eligible).


Before you begin

• You need access to the SchoolCash Catalog.
• Detaching an optional attachment removes the committment for that student to pay for the attached item.
• Before detaching a required attachment, consider whether the committment is to stay with the attachment or be removed. If the item committment is to be completely removed, then follow the instructions in the article titled Change a Required Attachment to Optional.
• Some districts restrict edits if a student has already paid; contact your District Administrator if needed.


Steps

  1. Open SchoolCash Catalog.
  2. Select the Item that has the attachment you want to change.
  3. Click Manage Attachments.
  4. Select the attachment you want to update.
  5. Click Edit.
  6. Review the Attach Item As: selection. If it is set as Required, review this Change a Required Attachment to Optional before proceeding.
  7. In the attachment editor, select the student in the Attached list.
  8. Click the Detach arrow to move the student to the Detached list.
  9. Click Save to confirm your changes.

Outcome

The selected student is detached from the item. The attachment no longer appears as a commitment for that student.

Troubleshooting

  • Student cannot be detached > The student may have already paid for the item or district rules prevent changes after purchase. Contact your District Administrator.
  • Cannot find the attachment > Confirm you clicked Manage Attachments for the correct item and selected the right attachment to edit.
