How to refund a Tenant with Arthur Live Bank Feed

For scenarios where you have a receipt from a tenant which is an overpayment or a credit note and you would like to make a refund from the bank to the tenant. 

Step 1 Locate the tenancy and go to the statement area where you will Add Transaction > Select  the Tenancy refund transaction type. Enter the total amount you want to refund.

  Step 2 Allocate "Tenancy refund" to the tenancy receipt (Overpayment) or a Credit Note. Please see for how to make a credit note Click on the drop down arrow of the Tenancy Refund > Allocate to Transaction > enter the full amount This step allows the tenancy refund transaction to show on Arthur Live Bank Feed. Unallocated tenancy refunds will not appear as available to reconcile.  

  Step 3 Reconciliation Find the corresponding Spent item of your bank feed Search the TR number of "Tenancy Refund" Click "Match" Important: When you unreconcile a tenancy refund, the tenancy receipt or credit note it is allocated to will not be voided. Only the "Tenancy refund" transaction will be deleted and the bank statement line will then reappear for you to reconcile in your bank feed.

Please note: If you are a property manager refunding the tenant, you would have collect the money from the landlord first if you had already remitted the rent across.

In this case add a negative 'tenancy receipt' on the Property Owner statement, as showed below. This will charge the landlord and collect the rent from them. If you charged a management fee when you passed the rent across you would also need to add a negative management fee to refund the landlord the charged fee as showed below.
