At the beginning of each term, a whole new set of Subsidiary Master rows must be created for each student. Although this can be an automatic process, it greatly increases the number of subsidiary accounts that need to be managed.

In addition, the control tables (e.g., charges generation and receipt codes) must be maintained more frequently since defaults and account numbers will change each term. Alternately you may create a subsidiary for each term and "reuse" it each fall, spring, etc.
