A credit is a financial transaction that reduces the amount of money owed by a resident without increasing a bank balance or accepting payment.

A recurring credit is an automated posting mechanism that posts a credit for a resident based on a pre-set frequency.

For example:

  • Harry gets $50 off if he pays by the 1st of the month. I've set up this discount using a recurring credit.
  • Francine negotiated a better rate, so I've put in place a recurring credit on her ledger to represent this discount.
  • Louis landscapes all the yards on our properties, and therefore I put a recurring credit on his ledger to represent this work in exchange for a lower amount owed.
