Complete Financial Solution

TRUE North includes a robust suite of financial tools including invoice creation, fee and payments tracking, receipting, as well as expense and commission tracking. Invoices can be quickly generated with custom letterhead and custom payment instructions.

TRUE North allows detailed search and extract capabilities with all financial information, to ensure synchronization with district financial systems. Currently, we have built in support for SRB, CIMS and Navision. TRUE North also provides tools for homestay payment management. From within TRUE North you can select and create invoices for multiple students at once. For example, we have recently added additional financial search filters, so it is simple to track students with outstanding fees.

There are also useful statistics on the homepage that give a quick snapshot of district receivables, paid and owing, as well as expense tracking.

Philosophy

TRUE North is a common system – which makes us incredibly efficient and agile. When a user requested feature is added, every client benefits at no additional cost. New features are introduced in an intelligent manner to ensure you remain productive and uncluttered. We do not charge every client for the same enhancement. We build highly flexible and customizable tools to ensure you are in control of the fields you manage, the letters you generate, and every field within your online student application.

TRUE North is integral to the success of our International Student Program and allows us to efficiently process applications, track payments, maintain data integrity and so much more. The TRUE North Team is always available to answer questions and provide training, and has been exceptionally helpful in building custom solutions to meet our board’s needs.
