Charging each owner with electricity consumption each month

Précédent  Suivant Haut

Question : I have to charge each owner with electricity consumption each month. Naturally every amount is different.

Can you tell me how best to do this, other than to go into each account separately ?

 

Effectively, it would be a real nightmare to have to do them one by one.

 

Since it has to be done each month, I recommend to create an 'Invoicing Group'

Menu  Transactions > Invoicing Group Management
Click on ''Add New''
Give a name to your new group
Click on the binocular icon to choose the revenue account you want to credit
Type the description of the transaction you would like to be printed on the owners' statements
In the grid below, select the accounts that must be charged
you can just double click on the account you want to transfer to the right
or highlight all the ones you want and after click on the button "Add' (in the middle on the screen)
All accounts being on the right part of the screen will be part of the group
Type the amount for each of them
or use the function above to record several accounts with the same amount
Highlight the ones you want, type the amount in the field and click or ''Record' and all selected accounts are going to have the same amounts automatically recorded
Save
Your group is now ready to be processed at any time
It can even be processed right now by clicking on the button ''Process this Group Now''

 

 

The next time you will have to process it

Use the menu Transactions > Invoicing Group Management
Select the group involved
Then, change what has to be changed
oNew amounts where needed
oRemove accounts not needed anymore
oAdd accounts to the group if needed
Click on “Process this Group Now
Select the date at which it must be processed
