Ad-Hoc Purchases
Ad-hocs are sessions that aren't part of a child's regular plan. While a child's Plan is the recurring weekly pattern of attendance, Ad-hoc Purchases are one-off purchases, for example, an extra session, a late collection fee, or irregular attendance such as holiday club.
Please note: A session or product will only appear as an option to book ad-hoc if you have added an ad-hoc price when creating it.
How to add an ad-hoc purchase
Adding an ad hoc purchase to a child's profile will instantly be picked up by your revenue report, your occupancy report, and your registers.
To add an Ad-hoc Purchase:
Use the search bar to look up a child's profile
Once you're there, click on the Bookings tab and click on Add next to Purchases
Select the relevant Pricing band
Then the date for this product or session
Click on the items you'd like to add as ad-hoc purchases
You can click on as many as you'd like to add them in bulk. They will all be collected in the Summary section on the left
Add a discount or a note if needed
When you're ready, click on Submit request
The ad-hoc purchases added will show up in the Purchases overview:
Deleting an ad-hoc purchase
Providing the ad-hoc purchases or sessions have not been invoiced for (shown by a green checkmark), you can delete them. To remove an item, open up the bundle of purchases and click on Remove under the item.
To delete an ad-hoc that has already been invoiced, you must first cancel the relevant invoice then delete the ad-hoc. Once you have removed it, you can reissue the invoice.
All ad-hoc purchases (appearing in the Selected items column, as shown above) are bundled together as one purchase when you click create and will therefore be added to an invoice as a group of purchases. We recommend that you don't have purchases from two different months in the same bundle because all of it will be picked up next time you issue an invoice.
Invoicing ad-hoc purchases
It's not possible to raise an invoice for only ad-hoc purchases since they are automatically picked up the next time you issue an invoice.
However, if the ad-hoc purchase was for the period that has already been invoiced, you can of course still invoice for this. You will need to raise an invoice for the same period, so the ad-hoc purchase will be picked up.
N.B. If you choose not to charge for sessions where a child is unwell, you will need to delete the ad-hoc session, even if you left the boxes below unchecked when creating the session. This is because it only applies when the session is part of a plan and not an ad-hoc.
