Doorway's billing statements feature allows users to generate a monthly billing statement that includes transactions posted onto the selected account, a beginning, and an ending balance for the month. The printed Billing Statement offers a payment section/amount to be mailed back to the Housing Authority from the tenant if need be. Read below for more information on how to run billing statements from both a tenant ledger and in bulk. 

A. Office Address - The address to the housing authority as reflected in the configuration of your Doorways instance. 

B. Current Amount Due - The total balance, minus any repayment balance, for the month you are running the billing statement. Note: If any transactions are posted after you run the billing statement, this number may change. 

C. Amount Enclosed - This field is for the household use when returning money to pay toward their account. 

D. Household Mailing Address - The default address is the Unit Address, but if any other addresses have been added to the contact section of the Household Overview, and they have a star next to them, this will override the unit address as the mailing address. 

E. Account -  The PPU associated with the tenant ledger 

F. Billing Date - The last day of the month for which you are running the billing statement

G. Billing Statement Number - A unique, sequential, number to match the billing statement top and bottom half. Note: This number is generated each time you run the billing statement wizard, even if you cancel out of the screen. 

H. Office Address and Account - The office address and the unit address tied to the tenant ledger. 

I. Transactions Breakdown - All transactions posted for the month as of the last day of the month. Any transactions posted after you run the billing statement will not be included. When running a billing statement for the next month, all scheduled transactions will be included in the breakdown. 

J. Repay Balance - Any repay balance for the tenant. Note: this amount is deducted from the total AR balance when reporting the current amount due. 

K. Comment/Note - This will be the comment added when running the letter generation wizard

L. Aging - A breakdown of the Accounts Receivable balance.
