If a student leaves or graduates and is marked inactive it makes sense to automatically mark the parent inactive at the same time, once you drop the student it can be difficult and take 2 times amount of time to go back and find the parent to make them inactive. Would probable also make sense for a pop up to say do you wish to make siblings inactive also just incase there is still a sibling at the school in which case you would keep the parent active.
This is a bad idea. Sorry. Many of our parents have mutlipe kids enrolled. If one of those kids becomes inactive the parent is still active because they still have two other kids enrolled and active. This may be a good idea if the system can NOT do this when there are still other active kids but would be destructive if the parent is marked inactive just because one of their three kids dropped.
I think if a student withdraws the softwaree should automatically make them inactive. Seems like double the work if we have to go in and do it.
Marking the parent inactive should automatically mark any students with the account inactive. Redundant to have to mark both the student and parent inactive.
And don't allow to mark parent inactive if younger sibling is still dancing.
But only mark the parent Inactive if their balance is Zero. We continue to send statements to parents who owe even if the student is Inactive.
