Accrue the First Dues (Single + Bulk)
Adding debt to a single resident from the Dues module and creating monthly recurring dues for all residents with Bulk Charging.
You reflect end-of-month dues to residents as debt by accruing them. Then you collect payments against these debts. In Apt Yönet there are two methods: Single dues (to a single account) or Bulk Charging (to all residents, monthly recurring if needed).
Prerequisites
- At least one block + unit must be defined.
- At least one resident (Owner / Tenant) must be added.
- A dues Category must be defined (Settings > Categories — if none, you can type a new label in the form to create one).
1. Single dues — New Dues form
From the left menu, go to Dues > press the New Dues button in the upper right. In the form that opens:
- Account — Select the resident to whom the debt will be assigned via autocomplete (you can search by name/unit).
- Description — e.g., "March 2026 Dues"
- Amount — Debt amount (TL)
- Due Date — Payment deadline. Once the due date passes, late interest (if enabled for your complex) begins to accrue.
- Category — Dues / fuel / elevator, etc.
- Apply interest — Whether late interest should accrue (depends on the complex's interest settings).
To save, press the Save button. The debt is created instantly and appears in the account detail.
2. Bulk Charging — Monthly dues for all residents
Creating monthly dues for the entire complex in one shot is the fastest method. On the Dues page, click the Bulk Charging link in the top toolbar (sub-link or New Task button).
On the Dues > Bulk Dues Accruals page, press the + New Task button at the upper right. In the form that opens:
- Description — e.g., "Monthly Dues" (this text appears to residents each month)
- Category
- Amount — Per resident or total (depending on distribution method)
- Distribution Method — Full amount to each account / Total ÷ number of residents (split)
- Target — All residents / Owners only / Tenants only (block/group filter can also be added if needed)
- Accrual Date — The date the debt is issued
- Due Type — Fixed date / Accrual + N days / End of month
- Repeat — Enable monthly repeat; the system automatically opens accrual each month (up to 24 months). Turn this off for a one-time entry.
3. Preview and confirm
Press the Charge button at the bottom of the form. A Preview modal opens first: it lists how many residents will be charged which amount. If there is an error, close it and adjust the form; if correct, use Confirm and Save to create the accrual.
Next step
Debts have been created. Now, as residents begin paying, you will collect payments.
