15 December 2014 i need to pass an accounting entry for an educational institue, where income is shown on receipt basis and fee is received in installment.
i need to open the account of every student so that i will easily recognise the undue amount of student.

for ex. if any student pay fees 2500, and course in which he is register is 70000 so the outstanding amount id 67500 in student account

17 December 2014 If you want to maintain the books of account on cash basis then it is not possible to record outstanding balance of fees from individual students.

It is possible only if you maintain books on accrual basis.

You will have to maintain a manual record. Any attempts to route the transaction through the books of account will create problems during audit & assessment.
