Other Receipts
Today we wanted to discuss "Other Receipts" in AppFolio.
Under Accounting and Receivables, you will notice a task named "Other Receipt." This task is used primarily for any sort of funds coming into your account that you need to make records of.
When to Use Other Receipts
For example, if you received insurance money to fix a broken deck, you would use the "Other Receipt" function. It is also important to be aware of which GL account to use — a reimbursable item should be booked differently than rent income.
Steps to Enter an Other Receipt
Accounting > Receivables > Other Receipt
Enter the following:
- Received From — the source of funds
- Amount — the total received
- Property and Unit (if provided)
- Appropriate GL Account
- Receipt Date — the date of the check or payment
Depositing the Receipt
Once the receipt is entered, deposit the receipt using the date provided on the deposit slip:
Accounting > Receivables > New Bank Deposit
