Parent-Student Link for Parents of Multiple Students
Parent that have more than one student attending the same Institution can easily switch between their students’ Cashnet SAO/ePayment sites using the ‘Parent-Student link’ feature. This document explains how the feature works in Cashnet.
- Each student must first create an account for their parent using the same email address for each account. See Adding a Payer User help guide.
- You will be assigned a different username and temporary password for each student. Please keep track of each of them. Then, log out completely and log in to a new session using either set of credentials.
- Once the parent logs onto the Cashnet site for Student A, they will see the option to link to another student (on the Overview page)
- Click on the “Link to another student” button. This brings up an overlay where the parent would enter the username and password set up by Student B.
- After entering the username and password and clicking on the Continue button, the system will link the 2 accounts and display a success message.
- The site will also display the accounts that have been linked. The parent can then click on the ‘View’ button to view a student’s ePayment site.
- Once within a student’s ePayment site, a parent can switch to the other student’s site by clicking on “View a Different Student” next to the student’s name.
