If the funds received are for any pending receivable, apply the funds as needed
- Enter the income with the income code that describes the funds received and select the resident name if the item is paid by the resident so they get proper credit. Many rental income codes related to residents will force you to select the resident, however other codes will not.
C. Adding Pending Receivables

Should there be any outstanding funds owed by the resident, enter the item(s) as pending receivable so it alerts all parties of what is still owed.
- Do a separate income code entry for each type of income that is paid. If someone pays a lump sum but it is to cover multiple items, it is recommended to break the items out so that the ledger clearly shows what makes up the deposit, and to avoid future questions.
- Once all credits have been applied, move onto the expenses.
D. Pay Fees

F. Update Ledger Minimum
Now let's verify if the ledger minimum is accurate. If the ledger minimum is at the standard minimum it is recommended to verify if there are any outstanding work orders that approval has been given for an amount that exceeds the standard ledger minimum amount. If there is nothing outstanding that this would affect, proceed back to the ledger amount.
- If there are outstanding items, proceed to the owner fees section in the property detail screen and update the ledger minimum to retain the standard amount plus the amount to cover the forthcoming invoice(s)
- In the event the ledger minimum was increased prior, verify that all work orders have been resolved/paid and no other funds are needed and decrease the ledger minimum back to the standard retain.
G. Enter a Disbursement Check to the Owner
