Step by step
- Open the association and then “Service-charge account”. Import a statement of the association's account (camt.053, MT940 or CSV).Matched by IBAN or unit in the reference
- The balance list shows per unit the budgeted service charge, special levies and additional payments against payments. Assign open payments by hand.Owners see only their own balance
- For open amounts, create a payment reminder, an interest statement or the data sheet for the online dunning application.Interest: 5 points above the base rate
- With direct-debit mandates, create the direct-debit file for your bank or start collection through the connected collection account.Collection currently runs in test mode
- For the tax advisor, download the year's DATEV booking batch or CSV.The firm assigns the accounts
The result: Always know who owes what, with the next steps prepared.
Important: You file the dunning application yourself at online-mahnantrag.de. Collection through ImmoDok is a simulation until a payment provider is connected; no money moves.
