# Your RTO Manager schedule collects itself.

> Qualy reads your RTO Manager student payment schedule every few hours, creates the students, payment plans and agent commissions, and collects the money. RTO Manager stays your source of truth.

Qualy reads the student payment schedule every three hours, creates the payment plans and the agent commissions, and collects the money. Your team keeps working in RTO Manager.

- **Integration:** Qualy + RTO Manager
- **Category:** student systems
- **How Qualy sits in the flow:** Qualy reads your system. Your system stays the source of truth.
- **What it removes:** Your student payment schedule becomes payment plans. No re-keying.
- **Status:** available today

## How it works

1. **RTO Manager holds the truth** — Students, courses, the payment schedule and the agent on each enrolment. Nothing about how your team works changes.
2. **Qualy reads and collects** — Each scheduled payment becomes a Qualy payment the student can settle themselves, with reminders that chase without you.
3. **The money is handled** — Agents are paid their commission, your ledger is updated, and payments taken in RTO Manager are recognised so nobody is chased twice.

## What you can do with Qualy and RTO Manager

### For the student administrator

The re-typing that stops.

- When you add a payment schedule in RTO Manager, the plan appears in Qualy within three hours and the student gets one link for every instalment.
- When you change an amount or a date, Qualy follows on the next read and the student sees the correction.
- When someone pays at reception, RTO Manager records it and Qualy stops asking for it.
- When a schedule row is cancelled, the payment is cancelled with it and the chasing stops.

### For whoever pays agents

Commission from the schedule, not a spreadsheet.

- When the schedule names an agent, Qualy creates the partner and the commission split at the rate and GST on that row.
- When the student pays, the commission is worked out, held and paid out without anyone raising a bill.
- When the agent on a schedule changes, the old split is removed rather than left to pay twice.

### For the college

One system for money, without leaving the one you have.

- When money is collected, it lands in Xero or QuickBooks without a second integration project.
- When a student falls behind, the reminders run themselves and your team sees who is overdue without opening RTO Manager.

## What syncs, which way, and when

| In Qualy | Direction | In RTO Manager | When |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Scheduled payment | RTO Manager to Qualy | Payment, with its due date | Every three hours, and whenever the schedule changes upstream |
| Cancelled schedule row | RTO Manager to Qualy | Payment cancelled | When the row is cancelled in RTO Manager |
| Fee paid in RTO Manager | RTO Manager to Qualy | Payment receipted | Money taken outside Qualy is recorded so nobody chases a student who has paid |
| Student | RTO Manager to Qualy | Contact, with their photo | Matched on the RTO Manager student ID |
| Agent on the schedule | RTO Manager to Qualy | Partner and commission split | Rate and GST read from the commission column |
| Course and CoE | RTO Manager to Qualy | Order and service | So each payment sits under the course it belongs to |
| Account manager | RTO Manager to Qualy | Contact owner | Matched by email, so the right person owns the student |

## What this integration does not do

- **Won't change your RTO Manager data** — Every call we make is a read. Students, courses and schedules are never edited by Qualy.

- **Won't rewrite history** — You choose how many days back and forward to read. Anything outside that window is never touched.

- **Won't invent a commission** — The rate and its GST come from the schedule itself. If the schedule says nothing, no split is created.

- **Won't work outside Australia** — RTO Manager is an Australian system and this integration works in Australian dollars only.

- **Won't merge two students who share an email** — Students are matched on their RTO Manager ID. If two share an address, both stay separate and are flagged for you.

If your setup needs something this page does not list, ask us. Most of what is on this page started as a customer asking.

## Setup

**Nothing in RTO Manager is written to.**

The integration reads your payment schedule report. It cannot edit a student, a course or a schedule.

1. Give Qualy an RTO Manager sign-in with access to the payment schedule report.
2. Choose how many days back and forward to read.
3. Watch the first read, then approve what it created.

Available on every plan

## Questions

### Does Qualy write anything into RTO Manager?

No. Every call is a read of your payment schedule report. Nothing in RTO Manager is created or edited by Qualy.

### How often does it read?

Every three hours. RTO Manager has no way to notify us of a change, so Qualy checks on a schedule rather than waiting to be told.

### Which system is the source of truth?

RTO Manager, for students, courses and the schedule. Qualy is the source of truth for money: what was collected, what is owed and what each agent is due.

### What about students who share an email address?

They stay separate. Matching is on the RTO Manager student ID, and where an address genuinely collides the second student is created with a distinct address and flagged for you.

### What if my setup needs something this page doesn't list?

Ask. Most of what is on this page started as a customer asking.
