These instructions will guide you through posting a transaction in JCampus.


  1. Select Funds from the area on the left side of the screen.
  2. Under Entry select Funds Management System.
  3. The default District and School information will be based on your security settings.
    NOTE If you are a district user, you will need to make a school selection.
  4. The Post Date is the default value for the first entry but can be changed when posting a new transaction. The changed post date will become the default date.
  5. The From Date and To Date is a date range for selecting the transactions to display on the screen.
    For example if the date range is 02-01-2015 thru 02-04-2015 and you use 02-10-2015 as a post date for a new entry, the new entry will not be displayed until you return to the setup box and change the date range to include the 02-10-2015 date.
  6. Select Yes or No to print receipts.
  7. Receipt No options:
    a. Leave it blank and the system will automatically increment the number based on the last number used.
    b. If using a pre-printed receipt set of receipt numbers, enter the first receipt number if changing to a new book of receipts.
  8. Click Ok to enter the posting transactions screen.


Instructions for posting a new transaction

  1. Ignore the Key column—it is used to store your school number, district number and posting date.
  2. Select transaction type--TR column. Refer to the table at the bottom of this page for the description of each transaction type.
  3. Select month--M column.
  4. Click in the Vendor field to select the vendor if required. A Vendor Name/Description popup will appear. To make a selection, click the check box to the left of the Vendor name.
    NOTE: If Transaction Type 12 is used, click the Vend No field and enter name and address of check payee
  5. Enter Vendor Ref which is usually an invoice number; or, you may leave this field blank and the software will enter the date and time as the reference number.
  6. Ck No options
    • Information will be automatically created for an Adjustment, a Deposit, a transfer, a Debit Card, and Interest.
    • If you are using the check printing module leave the Ck No field blank for Transaction Type 10 or 11.
    • If you are manually writing checks or using transaction type 12, enter the check number in the Ck No field.
  7. Click the Pay Date field to get the default post date to appear on the screen. Or click the calendar icon on the right to select a new post date. This will become the new default pay date.
  8. Click in the Fund cell and a distribution window will appear on the screen.
  9. Select the Fund Account using the check box to the left of the account name; enter amount to be posted to the selected account and a comment if needed
  10. Enter additional account(s) and amount(s) in the same distribution window for the same vendor.
  11. Click the Total button to verify the total of the amounts being paid to this vendor.
  12. Click OK on the distribution window.
    NOTE: Amounts will automatically be positive or negative depending on the transaction type selected in step 2 above.
    Do NOT type in account numbers as this will interfere with the record saving process.
  13. Ignore the columns for Cat, Div, Po, and RPV.
  14. Enter a BRIEF comment. You may enter invoices here.
    NOTE: If you leave the comment field(s) blank, a pre-formated comment will be created that includes the date and a time stamp.
  15. Click the Save cell at the far right of the screen.
    The receipt number will be created at this time and will be displayed on the screen to the right of the comment field.
