Definitions

1. the statistic of the Advance Scheduling Registrar is: total amount of advance payments used for the week. The definition of advance payment used is the total of the week's debit (APU) invoices written against previous advance payments. (Refunds on AP do not count as APUs for stat purposes.) (HCO PL 15 Sept 71 I)

2. any use of services or items (such as bookstore) against existing credit, i.e., for which the student has paid previously. The exact value of that individual service, based on what the student paid for it, is the advance payment used. As an example, a student having paid for OT 1-8 as a package, now begins OT

3. The cashier writes a debit invoice for the value of OT

4. at a prorated price consistent with the package price paid by the student. This (debit invoice) amount then becomes an advance payment used and is marked as such on the debit invoice. Where and when the student's previous payment was made is not important - except that the payment must have been received eventually by the Sea Org at one of its AOs, bases or ships before the payment can be considered received or used. (FO 1828)

5. APU-this is written on the invoice when the student starts a service for which he has already paid the advanced payment. (FO 2988)
