Monthly Billing Payment Schedules
If the Trip is enabled with Monthly Billing the payment will be collected from the parent on the day of the month they have set in their SCOPAY account, not on the day of the month set in the Payment Schedule.
For example, Payment 1 is set to 1st June, but if a parents Monthly Billing day is not till 12th then Payment 1 will be collected on the 12th June for this parent.
