Every payment lands on the right fund, to the cent

Payment reconciliation

Record payments against a unit and apply them across charges and owners in a single database transaction.

Payments tab for a building listing one bank transfer of €100.00 with date, unit, owner, method, reference and split columns

Outcome

A posted payment's amount, date and allocation cannot be rewritten by a manager — a database trigger enforces it, and every change carries an audit entry.

In practice

Why teams use this feature

What managers and committees tell us it changes in the monthly routine.

  • Common/reserve split stored as two rows, committed together

  • Bank lines matched by payment reference and amount, with a confidence score

  • Payment receipt PDF per recorded payment

  • Atomic posting: the payment and its allocations are written together or not at all

  • One payment applied across several charges

  • Bank statement import suggests the paying owner with a confidence score (beta)

  • Outstanding balance per unit, common and reserve shown separately

How it works

What this feature does

Record a payment against a unit — amount, method, reference, date — and it is applied to the owner's balance at once, split between common and reserve fund when needed. Import the bank statement and each line is matched to a unit by payment reference code and amount, with a confidence score you accept or override. Shares always sum to the transfer, because rounding uses the largest-remainder method.

01

What arrives in the bank, and what it has to become

Owners pay by transfer, often with a free-text reference, sometimes for two months at once, sometimes on behalf of a relative. Each transfer has to become a payment on one unit — dated, referenced, applied to the right fund. Across Europe the mechanics are the same; only the bank formats differ. Every unit in Domera has a payment reference code — print it on the statement and matching becomes exact.

02

How a bank line becomes a payment

Import the bank statement in the Reconciliation view. Each line is compared with open balances: a payment reference code plus an exact amount scores 98 %; an exact amount on the same day scores lower; free-text descriptions are read to suggest the owner or unit. Accept a suggestion and the payment is recorded; override it and the correction stands. Nothing is posted without your acceptance.

03

Why the cents always add up

Amounts are handled in cents. When an amount is spread across units, whole cents are assigned first and the remaining cents go to the largest fractional remainders — the largest-remainder method — so €100.00 across three equal units becomes €33.34, €33.33, €33.33, not €99.99. A split between common and reserve fund is written as two rows in one transaction: both commit or neither does.

04

What the owner sees the same day

The unit's balance updates immediately in the manager's view and in the owner portal. The next statement lists the payment as a credit line with its method — 'Payment (bank_transfer)' — and the closing balance moves accordingly. A payment receipt PDF can be issued per payment. Each recorded payment carries user, timestamp and source (user, the Domera assistant, scheduled job or system) in the audit trail.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

More answers on the full FAQ page.

How does Domera handle rounding across many owners?
With the largest-remainder method: whole cents first, then the leftover cents to the largest fractional remainders. The shares always sum to the total; no cent is lost or invented.
Can we record partial payments against outstanding balances?
Yes. A payment of any amount is applied to the unit's balance, and a single transfer can be split between the common and reserve funds. The statement shows the credit and the remaining balance.
Do payment records appear on owner statements automatically?
Yes. Payments recorded in the period appear as credit lines with their method on the next generated statement, and the unit's balance in the portal updates as soon as the payment is saved.
