# School Supplies
The purpose of this feature is to set up the school supplies offered by the institution. Before proceeding, ensure that the necessary prerequisites, such as Units, Tracks/Strands, Grade Levels, and Subjects, are already configured. Once set up, these supplies can be assigned to students during enlistment and payment, streamlining the process for both administrators and students.

* **Required Toggle Button** - School admin can now mark an item as required or not. If toggled on a required, guardians will be unable to deselect a required item in the Step 3 of the Enlistment process, which is the selection of payment scheme and selection of supplies/optionals
{% hint style="warning" %}
If an Item is intended to be applied or viewable by all students within a selected grade level, there is no need to fill out the "Subjects" field.
However, if your school offers differentiated classes, such as "Advanced" and "Regular," it is recommended to populate the "Subjects" field with the specific "Advanced" subject where the item will be utilized. This ensures that the item is assigned appropriately based on the class type.
