# The School Cash Suite

Canonical: https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/467822/The-School-Cash-Suite

> The School Cash Suite is a school finance software platform designed for K-12 educational institutions. It manages fees, payments, accounting, and audit reporting, providing centralized control over school-generated funds. The software is suitable for districts of various sizes, from single schools to large multi-school systems.

The platform offers district-wide visibility into financial activity at each school, enabling finance teams to monitor fees, funds, and payments at the student level. It eliminates reliance on spreadsheets or fragmented systems. Role-based access control provides customized views for district finance offices, bookkeepers, coaches, and principals based on their responsibilities. The system supports multiple payment methods, such as credit and debit cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, cash, and checks. Transactions are automatically posted to general ledger accounts and bank deposits using point-of-sale devices. Audit readiness features support compliance with standards such as Redbook and GASB-84.

The software operates with bank-grade security protocols, including SOC 2 Type II, PCI Level 1, and FERPA-compliant protections. Automated processing reduces manual data entry, minimizing errors and staff workload while simplifying activity fund management. The platform has been used in the K-12 education sector for over three decades, serving thousands of districts and schools across North America.

## Reviews

### "Will not integrate seamlessly with PowerSchool for the School Store" — 2.0/5

> **Vicki** | *16 November 2016* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 2.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The most I like about this software is it' cloud based. The sales pitch and website is very nice. (It is unfortunately is not what they deliver. )
> 
> **Cons**: Customer Service , integration team, price is too steep, finding reports to fit your needs, it doesn't integrate with one of the largest student information service systems in the industry. It's a Canadian based company and some of the paperwork gets issues and shows items in Canadian currency. 

The close out for the year and rolling over is always a painful and slow process when your trying to close for audit prep.

The bank rec month headings always seem to get out of sync. If call, most likely the customer service is closed. They are on eastern time and I am in Alaska time. Send an e-mail and maybe is 2-3 business days you get an answer.

> School Cash Suite is too expensive. Power School is one of the leading SIS companies and this software doesn't integrate with the school store.  I would change companies if the admin assistants didn't threaten to quit over changing. The customer service is on eastern time and doesn't fit my time zone well. Trouble tickets can take too long to get an answer. I would run from this software.

### "Good Product but..." — 4.0/5

> **Mildred** | *23 October 2019* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The company really understands what Accounting is needing and tries really to customize it for the school environment.
> 
> **Cons**: Not fully compatible or integrated with the Student Information System, the exporting tool not very secure.
Didn't have the full needs for the schools accounting in out region to report to the government. :(
> 
> It was a pretty nice process to set up all our schools with this product. The support in the implementation stage was really good.
