Adding a credit to a tenant's account is done from their ledger. There are two types of credit:
- General Account Credit
- Line Item Credit
When issued, General Account Credit is applied automatically based on your facility’s payment order selected in billing settings. As such, General Account Credit may be applied towards any charge.
Line Item Credit is specifically applied to monthly recurring charges which are rent, insurance, and services.
