Optional Payment Items
Optional payment items can represent generic categories of items, such as textbooks, starter packs or accommodation, and can be used for multiple courses.
You can specify the costs of optional payment items for learners to buy when they are buying a course. You can configure the cost of the items at the module or session level, so each session can have its own pricing. You can also specify the cost type of optional payment items, which determines how the cost of each is calculated.
Table: Optional Payment Items Cost Types
Optional Payment Item Type | Description |
Per Night of Course | This is calculated based on the total number of days that the course session spans minus one. For example, if a course session spans five days (that is, starts on Monday and ends on Friday), the computed duration for the payment item will be four. |
Per Business Night | This is calculated based on the number of business nights that the course spans. It does not include Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights or the last day of the course. For example, if a course session spans 14 calendar days (starts on a Tuesday, 1st September and ends Monday, 14th September), the computed duration for the payment item will be seven business nights. |
Per Week of Course | This is calculated based on the number of weeks that the course spans. It does not take into account the fact that seven days equals one week. As long as the course spans on a week, the week is then counted. |
Per Unit | This is calculated based on the number of units the participant buys. |
% of Course Cost | The cost for this payment item is calculated based on a percentage in relation to the course cost. |
