This week we released new features in MySchoolBucks to continuously help you and your parents manage payments for the 2022-2023 and 2023-2024 school years. Here's a recap:

 Recurring Outstanding Invoice Notifications

If your district has parents that commonly have outstanding invoices, you can now schedule recurring reminder emails to them. This will help not only remind parents that they have an outstanding invoice but can also help your district or departments tackle debt from those outstanding invoices by offering parents options to settle that debt.

More information on how to schedule recurring outstanding invoice notifications is available in this Outstanding Invoice knowledge article.

 Copy Invoice Templates

MySchoolBucks now features the ability to copy an existing invoice template. This function will allow our users to quickly and easily create a new invoice template that is similar to an existing one. Select "Copy" from the hamburger menu next to any existing invoice template to create a new invoice template with all the same configuration - then edit away!

 Save New Fees to an Invoice Template

Previously, in the MySchoolBucks 12.7 Release, MySchoolBucks added the ability to create fees on the fly when creating an invoice. This option displays when you go to add a fee to the invoice, and "Create new fee" displays.

In this release, MySchoolBucks now offers the ability also to save those fees created on the fly on an invoice when you're saving that invoice as an invoice template. When selecting the waffle menu to save the invoice as a template, a message will appear to let users know that any on the fly fees created in that invoice will also be saved to the template.

  MSB Anywhere Updates

MySchoolBucks Anywhere now offers a few enhancements:

• A modernized checkout workflow
• An 'Open Cash Drawer' button was added to the hamburger menu so that the drawer can be easily opened to add starting cash
• The device camera can now be used in the store to scan barcodes to search for products, Student IDs (to add students where students are required), search for student invoices, and add meal money
• More than one student can now be selected at a time in the invoice search
• In-app Multi-Factor authentication was added so that users will no longer be re-directed to the website for a much smoother login experience

  MSB Parent App Shopping Improvements

The MSB Parent App now offers a 'Continue Shopping' button to the cart and checkout to allow a parent to more easily navigate back to the store.
