**What Is General Ledger (G/L) Accounts?**

General ledger (G/L) accounts is an inventory of all the accounts that your school uses to code every individual transaction. It is an organizational tool. A good list of G/L accounts for school business can make it easier for your team to locate specific accounts, transactions, and more.  


  


Your school's G/L accounts does not need to look like anyone else's—each school can customize its chart of accounts to best suit its bookkeeping needs. In fact, it's important to do just that; every single school has unique accounts and transactions.   


  


Click on **General Ledger (G/L) Accounts** to set it up.   


  


Here you will set up the chart of accounts which allows your school's accounting and/or bookkeeping team to categorize each transaction. If you do not have any accounts in the system already, click on the **\+ Add New G/L Account.** A form will open and you will need to fill in the G/L code, give it a name and an optional brief description. Click **Submit** to save.  


  


![](https://help.opensis.com/galleryDocuments/edbsnfdbc2487000c0e65a94290efbee0f6859182ce802894ef34254cb219101a03226e7715d368f033620dda474abf280e4e?inline=true)  


  


Once you setup the G/L codes it will list it for you.

If you need to create one or more sub accounts under a main G/L account, then check the **Is Sub-Account** switch when creating the G/L account.

  


![](https://help.opensis.com/galleryDocuments/edbsn6df73bd7326031321598a01b04a71ee9dfe5d63a5496ef175637f368e1eaa9d0b5c14f924b1cb9397ff783e8ef1d8ab7?inline=true)

**What are Fee Types?**  


Fee types are the types of charges or fees that you assign to your students. These fee types usually align with your G/L accounts and are more verbose so that users can understand them. However, each fee type must be associated with a G/L account so that the revenue collected is accounted for in the general ledger for accounting and tax purposes.

# How To Set Up Subscriptions In CrownSIS

## What is a Subscription?  


A subscription is a recurring payment charged to a user at specified intervals. In CrownSIS, this feature enables schools to set up automatic deductions of subscription fees from student accounts. For the system to work seamlessly, schools need to have a **Stripe account connected to CrownSIS**. Without a Stripe account, the school cannot receive subscription payments. Therefore, connecting Stripe is the first step to setting up subscriptions.

## Step 1: Connect a Stripe Account  


If your school has not already connected a Stripe account, you need to do so before setting up subscriptions. This connection is required to process payments directly from the student’s account to the school’s account. You can easily connect your Stripe account in CrownSIS by navigating to **Settings** and configuring the **Online Payment Acceptance** under **Billing and Fees**.
