This will cause the system to display a Pop-Up in which you can enter the new installment amount in question:

The same change will be possible for all installments of the order.
Another method of changing the installment schedule for an order will be from Order Installment and Payment Management, selecting the option Redetermine installment definition or apply a discount, you will then have to change one of the installment amounts present:
As a result, a new installment of the amount equal to the amount removed from the modified installment will be entered (or the amount of the last installment will be decreased if the amount of the modified installment is increased):
It will still be possible to change the other installments as desired
I changed the end date of some courses but the dates of the next classes do not appear in the class agendas, why is that?
Manually changing the end date of the course does not automatically result in lengthening its schedule, in fact for regular courses once the change has been made it will be necessary to go to theLesson Schedule of the course, enter Edit Lesson Schedule and check the lesson schedule again, if there are no conflicts in the calendar it will be possible to apply the changes and lengthen the course.
The procedure is not done automatically to avoid possible overlaps between classes that the system would have no way to handle on its own without operator intervention.

To prevent the system from prompting you to enter the guardian/responsible person when registering for a course, you will simply need to enter the date of birth on the birth record of the adult student in question.

No packages appear in the enrollment or renewal panel, why is that?
In the case where a course has an enrollment type with an hourly cost of attendance or cost of attendance per lesson, it is necessary to create one or more packages with the same enrollment type (hours or lessons) and with the corresponding cost (of the hour or lesson) equal to that set in the course.
For example, if you create a course with cost of attendance per lesson, with single lesson cost equal to €20, you will have to create a package of lessons with single lesson cost equal to €20.
The same package from X lessons, may have different individual and overall costs (for the same number of hours or lessons).
For example, the 4-lesson package could have €20 as the single cost and €80 as the total price and also €15 as the single price and €60 for the package, and so on.
On the other hand, if you need to create a package with a different amount of hours or lessons, you will need to create a new one.
To create or manage packages, navigate to Configuration → Settings → Packages for courses delivered on a monthly, tuition and hourly fee basis.

How is teachers' pay calculated?
Lecturers' compensation is calculated by taking into account the pay grade applied (to the lecturer or lectures given) and the actual lectures given, i.e., those in which attendance was recorded (by the secretary or the lecturer himself).
The system will calculate amounts based on the actual minutes of the lesson: for example, if the teacher's pay class is €20 per hour and the lesson is 45 minutes, the system will calculate €15 (€20 / 60 minutes * 45 minutes).
The pay grades entered and thus the amounts calculated by the system are intended to be gross and will therefore need to be handled according to the billing mode associated with individual teachers.
