I am verying interesting in learning how other organizations are handing Scholarships. We have ours set up as editable price types.
When we interface to the G/L we group the price up to the full base price for to credit the class and place the scholarship amount into an offset account where we can track the amount.
Our problem is when a Constituent has both a Scholarship and a Discount. First we must apply the discount and then the Scholarship. I can not sell a class with two price types and if I go with Payment methods I will have hundreds of scholarship method of payments depending on the class that is being sold.
We do have a subscriber discount, but not for families who for financial aid. Our community partnership coordinator works with FA families on what dollar amount they are able to contribute to the tuition, and then we are typically able to cover the rest with financial aid.
