The Billing Profile

The base of Jackrabbit Care billing is the Billing Profile which sets the parameters for when a bill is automatically sent and when it's due.  Each Billing Profile in a Family Account carries its own balance with an assigned Payer. Fees, credits, and payments are all applied to a specific Billing Profile; the sum of all Billing Profile balances is the total balance for the family.


Billing Profile Details

To locate the Billing Profile for a family, go to Family Accounts (left menu) > Profiles card > View # Active Family Accounts. Select the family and then their Billing tab.

All Billing Profile cards contain the following:

  1. The name of the Billing Profile.
  2. Billing Profile Balance - The amount due for the Billing Profile.
  3. Invoice Schedule - The timing of when invoices will be automatically sent out (weekly or monthly).
  4. Payment Due Day - For a weekly Invoice Schedule, the day of the week a payment is due is shown. For a monthly Invoice Schedule, the day of the month a payment is due is shown.
  5. Days before to send invoice - The date when the invoice is sent to the Payer. Between 1-7 days is shown in this section.
  6. Next Invoice Date - The date when the next invoice is scheduled to be sent to the Payer.
  7. Next Due Date - The date on which the next payment for the invoice is expected or scheduled to be made.
  8. Payer - The Payer on the account for the specific Billing Profile.

Payers

A Payer is a person on the family's account responsible for paying the balance. Payers are only responsible for the balance assigned to their Billing Profile, and family accounts can have multiple Billing Profiles.

  • The initial Contact in the family defaults to the Payer.
  • All Payer's will show a Payer badgewhen viewing the Contact's section for a family.
  • Only one Payer can be assigned to each Billing Profile. 
Add Another Payer

To add a second payer to a family account, take these steps:

  1. Create a second contact on the family account if you have not already done so.
    • Go to Family Accounts (left menu) > Profiles card > View # Active Family Accounts.

Although each Payer has their own Billing Profile, charges can still be applied to a single Billing Profile, and payments can be made by either party.
