Want your late fee to show as a separate charge from the rent? Follow the instructions below!

  1. Under the "Rent" section, click the dropdown menu and select "Late Fee Rules"

  2. Under the "Save As" section in late fees, you have two options:

    1. Create a Separate Charge: Show "Rent" and "Late Fee" as separate charges (works well for keeping income types separate in accounting).

    2. Add to Existing: Show "Rent" and "Late Fee" as one charge (encourages tenant to pay late fee and rent together).

  3. Select "Create a Separate Charge" to show the rent and late fee as two distinct charges.

  4. Click the "Save" button in the top righthand corner to set your auto-late fee rules!
