Within the energy settlement, it's possible to charge a deposit and later settle this deposit with the real costs. To start with this, first a Deposit has to be charged. This can be done in different ways:

01. Add an imply in the year round reservation

An extra can be created where the rate = value of the deposit. This extra can be implied on the accommodation of the year round reservation. In that case, the deposit will be charged together with the costs related to the accommodation.


02. Add a value for Cleansing

In the Energy settlement, there also is a Utility type Cleansing. This can be used to add the Deposit on an invoice. 

  1. An add-on has to be created with the value of the Deposit
  2. The type should be Energy and the toggle for Energy invoice add-on should be on.
  3. The add-on has to be linked to the Utility bill for type Cleansing
  4. The start value has to be defined, could be 0.
  5. To get the Deposit in the settlement, the value of the "meter reading" should be 1. In that case the value (price) of the add-on will be taken into account x1. Of course any configuration can be chosen.

03. Settle energy

Settling works the same as settling the "normal" meter readings. When there are no further values ready to be settled, only the Deposit will be settled. In this example the Prepayment of €200.
