What SmartAcademy does in the background

The backend stores daycare settings on the branch. These settings become the default hourly rate, grace period, minimum hours, and auto-fee behavior used by daycare plans and usage.

Tips

• If the Daycare page says daycare is disabled, enable it from this settings area.
• Grace period controls whether extra minutes round into another chargeable hour.
