Useful Information

If the cashless funds have been credited to the same bank account as a relevant trip in school, it is possible to move the money across.
If the funds are in different bank accounts, refer to section 2 below.

Transfer Cashless catering online payments to Trips / Events

If a parent requests that a cashless catering payment processed on SCOPAY is transferred to a trip/event rather than refunded (for example, when processed by mistake), see the 2 scenarios below.

 1. Where the Cashless cafeteria and Trip cost centres both appear in the same bank account in SCO

  1. In SCO click on the Banking tab and check that the trip and catering cost centres are in the same bank account. (Note that if they are not and you attempt this process, you will be left with an inter-account debt between the bank accounts).

  2. First complete the refund for the pupil in your cashless catering system.

  3. Once the end of day routine has been run in the cashless catering system, the balance on SCOPAY and in SCO will be updated to reflect the refund.


  4. To deduct the funds from the Cafeteria cost centre in SCO:

    1. Click on the Expenditure tab

    2. Select Miscellaneous expenditure

    3. In the Details box entered narrative e.g. Transfer canteen payment to trip A Bloggs

    4. Select the Cafeteria/Canteen cost centre

    5. Select Credit/debit

    6. Enter the Gross amount

    7. Click Done
