Yes. The free EDUBase Owners App for Android shows today's P&L, fee collections, defaulters and attendance across all campuses, and lets the owner approve salary changes and leave from the phone.
What does the EDUBase Owners App show about fee collection?
The Owners App is built for the school owner or principal who wants the day's numbers without logging in to the web portal. It opens on the Daily P&L, which shows today's income, expenses and net balance, so you can see at a glance what came in and what went out.
From the financial report hub you can open collections, fee defaulters, the monthly P&L and the cash report. Because fee payments taken at the counter, by family or through partner banks all post to the same records, the figures on your phone reflect the same data your office staff see on the portal.
- Daily P&L: today's income, expenses and net balance
- Collections and fee defaulters
- Monthly P&L and cash report
- The same figures available per campus or combined
How does the app show student and staff attendance?
The student report hub shows attendance and lists today's absentees, with call and WhatsApp buttons beside each name so you or the principal can contact a family directly from the list.
Staff attendance sits in the employee report hub. Whether teachers are marked from the register, the Teachers App, a QR scan, a biometric device or a face attendance tablet, the result lands in the same attendance records, so the owner sees one consistent picture.
- Today's absentees with call and WhatsApp buttons
- Staff attendance alongside student attendance
- New admissions, inactive students and leavers
What can an owner approve from the phone?
Many decisions that would otherwise wait for the owner to visit the office can be approved in the app. Where the school has turned on approvals, requests appear on the phone and can be approved without opening a computer.
- Advance salary
- Increments and salary plan changes
- Student leave and employee leave
- Diary approvals before parents see the diary
Does the Owners App work for school groups with several campuses?
Yes. Campus selection lets you switch to a single campus or view all campuses together. This is useful for chains where each branch has its own principal but the owner needs the combined position on collections, defaulters and attendance.
On the web portal, staff can be restricted to the campuses granted to them, while owners see all campuses.
What else can an owner oversee from the app?
Beyond fees and attendance, the Owners App gives oversight of how the school communicates and how staff are using the system.
- Messages: see conversations between teachers, parents and staff across campuses
- Announcements: post notices that reach families in the Parents App
- PTM statistics and playable teacher voice notes from parent-teacher meetings
- A daily summary of important changes made by staff, drawn from User Logging
- Subscription details and how many parents use the Parents App
How does an owner get started with the Owners App?
The Owners App is one of EDUBase's 4 free mobile apps on Google Play. It works with the school's EDUBase web portal, so the data it shows comes from the fee, attendance, HR and finance screens your staff already use.
During onboarding the EDUBase team loads your student data and shares the login URL, institute code and admin credentials with a how-to video. Live online training can be scheduled on request, and the in-app AI assistant and tutorial videos are available round the clock.
