Billing and Expenses
Whether group members pay per use, per hour, or on any other basis, you can set that up in our system to automatically calculate the fees each member owes. Members are notified by email at the start of each booking, to confirm their usage. All usage and costs are displayed, to help members check they have entered the correct information. Members can also split usage costs with others in the group
No booking? No problem! Members can still enter the usage.
Billing is monthly and you can include other fees into the calculations, if you wish. Your group treasurer can review, edit and add information, or make manual adjustments before approving the payment notifications. Members can submit expenses any time, which will be offset against any amounts owed. Members can also click amounts owed, to confirm they have paid. You can review and export the information any time.
Usage, Issues and Reminders
The key to keeping running costs down is effective monitoring, so you can deal with any emerging issues. Whatever usage factors your group tracks, you can set those up here. Members are prompted to enter the information and it's all displayed to help your group check the accuracy of the entries, monitor the trends and spot any irregularities. You can export this information any time.
You can set up usage alerts that will automatically notify you by email when a threshold has been reached. You can reset or remove these as you need to. You can also set up other reminders and tasks - for licensing, insurance or cleaning for example.
