Your tenant has moved out, you updated their Status to Past in the tenant’s screen, and entered an Ending Date in the Lease information but you still see a Suggested Entry for their rent every month. Why?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Although the software automatically creates Scheduled Entries for you from the Lease information they are not linked because of several reasons.<\/strong><\/em> For example the rent can be paid late, rents can be paid after a lease is completed, etc. As well some Tenants will transition to a month to month rent without a Lease, and therefore some people prefer to just keep the Scheduled Entries around rather than having to re-enter a new one manually. As a result when a Tenant moves out, you will also have to delete the Scheduled Entries.<\/strong><\/em> This is also true if you change the Tenant’s Status to Past because it’s very much possible to have a past tenant still owe you monthly rents from an existing lease<\/em><\/strong> (for example a tenant that is no longer living there but still has some time left on the lease, or a parent leasing a unit for their college kid during the summer).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Your tenant has moved out, you updated their Status to Past in the tenant’s screen, and entered an Ending Date in the Lease information but you still see a Suggested Entry for their rent every month.

As well, for the same reasons, editing a Lease does not adjust the Scheduled Entries, or any other related entries for safety reasons. <\/em><\/strong>For example, if it did, editing a Lease would then cause your previous Accounting Entries to also be edited, which is very likely wrong and could result in a lot of accounting errors. Therefore as stated before, although Leases do create Scheduled Entries, they are not linked to the Scheduled Entries they have created.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
