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.
To access this module, go to Planning > Finance Setup > School Supplies

Fill out the necessary details:
Type - Specifies the type of school supply
Payment Group Fee Type - Changes to the same selected option in the Type field
Title - The title of the book or Name - when the type is Non-Book
Author - The author of the book or Details - when the type is Non-Book
Additional Details - Any additional information about the book
Price - The cost of the supply
Grade Levels/Strands - Indicates the grade levels or strands to which this supply is applicable. The supply will only appear for the selected levels during enrollment
Subject Area - Categorizes the book within a specific subject area or group
Subjects - Add subjects only if the book should apply exclusively to students enrolled in special classes
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
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.
