Why isn’t my owner income payout task creating a payable?

If your owner income payout task didn’t create a payable, follow these steps to investigate:

1. Pull an Owner Income Payout Report

Run an Income Payout Report from the date of your last payout through today.
This report will show:

  • Revenue collected

  • Expenses posted

  • The property’s net balance

2. Check if the property has a negative balance

If the property is in a negative balance, a payable will not be created.

Things that can cause this:

  • Expenses exceeding revenue

  • Outstanding bills

  • Held funds due to unpaid bills

3. Review your financial settings

Check your financial settings to see if you’ve enabled holding owner payouts when:

  • Bills are owed

  • Prepayments are made

If this setting is on, the system will intentionally block the payable.

4. Check for outstanding bills

If there are unpaid bills tied to the property, funds may be held back until those bills are resolved.

5. Check the owner’s overall balance

If the owner has another property with a negative balance, payouts may also be blocked.

6. Use an Owner Contribution task if needed

If the property (or owner) is in a negative balance, the owner will need to contribute funds.

👉 In this case, use the Owner Contribution task, which will create a bill for the owner to pay into the property.
