Rent Collection & Invoices

Invoices

Invoices are how you bill tenants and Section 8 programs (housing authorities). Most rent invoices generate automatically from leases, but you can also create one-off invoices and edit details as needed.

Invoice types

  • Receivable — money owed to you (rent, fees). Billed to a tenant or a program.
  • Payable — money you owe (expenses/bills). See Expenses & payables.

Create an invoice

  1. Go to Rent Collection → Create (or create from a lease/tenant).
  2. Choose who it's billed to (tenant or program).
  3. Add line items — description, amount, and the income account where appropriate.
  4. Set the due date.
  5. Save, then optionally Send it by email.

Tip

Line items determine how income is categorized in your financial reports. Assign the right account on non-rent items so your Income Statement breaks down correctly.

Edit an invoice

Open the invoice and Edit to change line items, amounts, due date or the billed-to details. Save to update.

Note

If a payment is already applied, some fields may be limited to protect your records. Void and reissue if you need to make major corrections.

Send and track

  • Send emails the invoice (with a pay button when Stripe is connected).
  • The invoice shows its status — draft, sent, partially paid, paid, overdue, or void.
