Helpful Notes 💡
Charges are your requests for money owed by tenants.
Payments are then made by tenants toward each charge.
Charges will appear in the tenant’s app as money due.
You can create recurring rent charges for the entire lease all at once — then relax!
Delete Overlapping Charges
If there are already charges set up for the same property and unit, you may see the option to Delete Overlapping Charges.
Choose the following based on your situation:
No, Keep All Charges
Select this when creating charges for a new set of tenants (for example, move-in tenants). This keeps the existing charges for old tenants on the same property and unit.Yes, Delete Overlapping Charges
Select this when recreating or replacing a lease, and you want to remove previously scheduled overlapping charges. For example, when setting up a corrected lease or updated rent schedule.
Don’t worry — deleting overlapping charges will not remove charges that have already been paid by the tenant.
