The following cost properties specify how the course, session or program costs are registered in the Accounts tab in the participant's profile when they enroll. Cost information can be configured at the module level and—optionally—at the session level, which takes precedence over the module cost information.
Table: Cost/Enrollment Information
| Property | Description |
| Charge Procedure |
Select from the drop-down list how the course cost is registered and charged. Select Charged per Registration to register a charge each time a participant enrolls in the course. The cost is registered in the Accounts tab in the participant's profile. You cannot add optional payment items to this type of charge. Select Online Payment to enable the participant to make the payment via an online payment gateway or with tokens. Online payments can be configured to accept tokens or currency, and enable you to charge for optional payment items. Select Organization One Off Token Payment to charge a one-off amount for an entire module and debit this amount from the organization's token account instead of charging per individual learner enrollment. For sessions, you can choose to use the setting configured at the module level or select a different procedure. |
| Charged Cost Center |
For non-token payment, you can enter the name of a cost center to associate the charge with. If you enter a cost center, it overrides the cost center defined for the learner (if applicable) in the User Editor. Otherwise, leave this field blank to use the learner's cost center. If the Show additional enrollment information in records/transcript System Configuration setting is enabled, the Charged Cost Center is shown in the Knowledge Center > Records/Transcript area. |
| Currency |
For non-token payment, select from the drop-down list the currency in which the course is charged. The currency is shown in the Course Details for each module session. |
| Cost |
For non-token payment, enter the cost in the selected currency. For token payment, enter the number of tokens to charge for the course. For organizational one off token payments, enter the number of tokens to charge and click Deduct Payment to take the token payment from one or more organizations. The cost is shown in the Course Details for each module session. |
| Price Info |
You can include any extra information about the course cost here for any of the charge procedures except Organization One Off Token Payment. The price information is shown in the Course Details for each module session. |
Optional payment items can represent generic categories of items, such as textbooks, starter packs or accommodation, and can be used for multiple courses.
You can specify the costs of optional payment items for learners to buy when they are buying a course. You can configure the cost of the items at the module or session level, so each session can have its own pricing. You can also specify the cost type of optional payment items, which determines how the cost of each is calculated.
Table: Optional Payment Items Cost Types
| Optional Payment Item Type | Description |
| Per Night of Course | This is calculated based on the total number of days that the course session spans minus one. For example, if a course session spans five days (that is, starts on Monday and ends on Friday), the computed duration for the payment item will be four. |
| Per Business Night | This is calculated based on the number of business nights that the course spans. It does not include Friday, Saturday, and Sunday nights or the last day of the course. For example, if a course session spans 14 calendar days (starts on a Tuesday, 1st September and ends Monday, 14th September), the computed duration for the payment item will be seven business nights. |
| Per Week of Course | This is calculated based on the number of weeks that the course spans. It does not take into account the fact that seven days equals one week. As long as the course spans on a week, the week is then counted. |
| Per Unit | This is calculated based on the number of units the participant buys. |
| % of Course Cost | The cost for this payment item is calculated based on a percentage in relation to the course cost. |
