The words
| Word | Meaning |
|---|---|
| academic year | The year that classes, enrolment, exams and fees belong to — for example 2026. |
| batch | A group of students taking a course together at a coaching or training centre. |
| dashboard | The first page after you sign in. The menu on the left leads to every part of BoorNoo. |
| gateway | The company that collects a payment (bKash, SSLCommerz) or sends an SMS (BulkSMSBD and others). |
| guardian | A student's parent or the person responsible for them. One guardian can have several children linked. |
| install as an app | BoorNoo can be put on your phone's home screen straight from the browser — no app store needed. |
| institute | Your school, college, madrasa, coaching or training centre — it has its own separate space in BoorNoo. |
| invoice | A bill showing what has to be paid — which fees, how much, and by when. |
| journal | One entry in the books — which account money went into (debit) and which it came from (credit). Both sides always match. |
| LMS | Online courses — videos, readings, quizzes, assignments and certificates. |
| module | One big part of BoorNoo — courses (LMS), live classes, accounting. If your plan lacks it, the menu shows a lock. |
| opt-out | Numbers that don't want campaign SMS. Important ones like fee receipts still go to them. |
| permission | Leave to do one specific thing, like "view fees" or "enter marks". Without it, the button or page doesn't appear. |
| plan | Decides which parts of BoorNoo your institute can use and its limits (students, SMS and so on). |
| receipt | Proof that money was received. Every BoorNoo receipt has a number and a QR code anyone can verify. |
| referral link | A reseller's own sign-up link. An institute that signs up through it is credited to that reseller. |
| role | A set of things a person may do — teacher, accountant and so on. A role is made of permissions. |
| section | A division of one class — for example Class 6, sections A and B. |
| sender ID | The name an SMS arrives from — like "ABC SCHOOL". Operators must approve it; without one, SMS come from a number. |
| SMS credit | SMS bought from the platform. They're used once the plan's monthly SMS run out. |
| SMS segment | How much text fits in one SMS — 70 Bangla or 160 English characters. Longer text goes in several parts, each counted as one SMS. |
| wallet | Money paid in advance in a student's name, later used for fees or other charges. |
