Landlord payment run - Step 1: Checking landlord and tenant balances

Landlord and tenant balances must be reviewed before starting the payment run to ensure all payments are accurate and any exceptions are identified.

1. Checking landlord balances

  1. Navigate to Lettings properties > Property balances

  2. Locate the Landlord balance column

  3. Click on the column header

The column will be sorted numerically, and landlords with the highest available balance will be brought to the top.

Please exclude any properties with a landlord balance available that should not be paid out.

2. Checking tenant balances

  1. Navigate to Lettings properties > Property balances

  2. Locate the Tenant arrears column

  3. Click on the column header

The list will be sorted numerically, bringing tenants with positive arrears to the top.

Before proceeding, investigate and resolve any cases where a tenant appears to be in credit due to a rent overpayment (shown as negative arrears).

3. Excluding properties

Once tenant and landlord balances have been checked and any relevant properties excluded, users can move on to the next step: Checking balance comparisons.
