Advance Payment by Owner

If an owner made an advance payment for works, this amount should be properly recorded in the accounting module, depending on the type of transaction.


➤ Situation 1: Owner advanced money to the condominium

Register a manual accounting entry in:
Accounting > Accounting Documents > Add

Posting instructions:

  • Debit: Bank (Account 12...)
  • Credit: Owner (Account 2111)

➤ Situation 2: Owner paid the contractor directly

a) If there is a supplier invoice:

  • Debit: Contractor / Supplier (Account 2211)
  • Credit: Owner (Account 2111)

b) If there is no supplier invoice:

  • Debit: Expense Account (Account 62...)
  • Credit: Owner (Account 2111)

➤ How to refund the owner?

The refund should be posted as the reverse entry of the original transaction.


➤ If used as credit

If the amount is to be used as credit to offset outstanding quotas:

  • Simply issue a receipt as usual to settle the open documents.
