Key Deposit

To take a key deposit...

When your  cursor is in the Code column, press the O alpha key, and then press the K key. (All deposits are started by pressing the O key first.)

After pressing the O key, your cursor will be placed in the Key numbers field above the Charging Lines.

Enter any key/card numbers now and press enter. You cursor will jump back to the Debits Column. If you have set the Default Key Deposit in the System Access program, a key deposit amount will appear in this column. You can overtype this amount if you want.

Of course, you have to use the A,T,G or N keys to process any on screen transactions.

Key deposits are automatically refunded when checking out a tenant, so you do not have to usually "Credit" a key deposit before checking-out a tenant.

If you want to Refund a key deposit manually without the check-out, you can place a zero in the debits column and enter the amount of key deposit to refund in the Credits column.

Key Deposits do not form part of the financials in UniRes unless a System Setting is changed in File Maintenance - System Settings (from the top Menu Bar). They are treated as "jam jar" type monies.

File Maintenance - System Settings example...

See File Maintenance

Key deposit transactions are immediatey recorded and reversed when a payment is taken.  Take a look at the tenants statement after recording a payment with a key deposit to see what happens.

Deposits can be taxed or not taxed depending on how an option is set in the File maintenance - System Settings program. See the field named tax Deposits.

Normally Deposits are not taxed as the tax is taken when the deposit is applied to a charge.
