Receiving Payments for Multiple Properties

A reader has a wish about receiving payments for multiple properties in QuickBooks.

Hi Jennifer,

I do bookkeeping for an HOA and some customers have more than one property. I would like to be able to select multiple invoices from more than one customer to post a check to.

Jennifer replies:

Hello Delaine,

It sounds like you have each of the properties setup as separate customers. Is this so?

If it is, then consider setting up each owner as a customer, with each property owned as "jobs" under that customer.

Then, when the customer/owner pays a single check for multiple properties, go to the Receive Payments screen and select that owner's name.

ALL of the open invoices for each of the jobs/properties will show here. Select each to be paid. Save the transaction. This allows you to do what you ask.

I hope this helps with receiving payments for multiple properties in QuickBooks. If I misunderstood, please let me know by posting a comment below. Thanks for writing.
