Money Manager Module Update: Introducing Defaulters List

No one wishes to have to deal with “Maintenance defaulters” but it’s no news that often treasurers are left with no other choice. When it comes to collating a defaulters’ list, it’s a painful job which requires plenty of time and subsequent follow-ups.

Now, are you a treasurer who finds himself in such situations and wishes there could be one space containing a list of all defaulters with their respective house numbers? There’s exciting news for you! We have just introduced the Defaulters List feature to our Money Manager Module.

Snapshot: Defaulters List

Defaulter's List

How Is It Helpful?
This feature will help Treasurers in easily keeping track of all those who have not paid their Maintenance Dues on time or beyond the due date.

  1. You have the option to filter the final report by Block, House, Invoice Title and the number of Days Elapsed.
  2. You can also take a printout of the defaulter list and put it up on notice boards in the community (club house, lifts or halls) as a reminder to residents.

Where Will You Find It?

  1. Log on to www.groups.commonfloor.com using your login credentials.
  2. On the dashboard page, click on your community name.
  3. On your community homepage, under the Manage tab on the right section of the page, click on the Money icon.
  4. On the Money Manager page, under Reports tab click on the Defaulters List button.

Once you’re on the Defaulters List view, you can choose a date range and filter out a list of defaulters based on block number, house number, invoice title and days elapsed.

Hope you will find this new feature addition useful. Write to us at support@commonfloor.com in case you have any query. :-)
