As a tenant, you may receive a statement from a landlord for one or more nonrecurring charges for multiple leases. For example, if you are a retail tenant who operates more than one store in a large shopping complex. A separate lease would cover each store, but the landlord may combine the charges onto one statement. PeopleSoft Lease Administration enables you to manually enter these nonrecurring transactions into one payment that spans multiple leases. You can enter a single statement that you can assign to multiple leases and distribute those amount to multiple payees. You can allocate the charges by amount or percentage and distribute the charges using these methods:
Evenly: The system divides the total amount by the number of selected leases and allocates an equal share of the charges to each lease.
By Area: The system adds the total leased area for all of the selected leases and distributes the charges proportionally between the leases based on the area for each lease.
Manually: You can assign the charges manually to each lease.
The total of the distributed amounts must equal the total of the statement.
After you allocate the individual amounts to each lease, you can send all of the resulting transactions to the transaction queue at one time. The system creates each of the transactions in pending status. You can edit or approve the transactions using the transaction queue. After you approve the transactions, you can run the Interface to AP/Billing process to post the transactions to PeopleSoft Payables.
Transaction Status for Manual Payments
This diagram illustrates the transaction status process flow for manual payments.

When you create manual transactions, the system sets each transaction to a status of Draft. You can modify, remove, or replace transactions while they are in draft status. After you commit the transactions, the system sets the status to Pending, and sends the transactions to the transaction queue. Use the Payment Transactions page to edit, hold, or approve the transactions.
If you dispute a lease, the system places all of its pending transactions in Hold status. If you cancel a manual fee transaction, the system returns the status of that transaction to Draft.
If you create the manual transactions as a group of transactions. After you commit the group of transactions, each transaction is processed individually. If the status of a transaction is updated, by either you or the system, only the transaction whose status changed is updated; the other transactions in the group are not affected.
Use the Payment Transactions - Create Payable Manual Fees page (RE_MFT_MAIN) to add manual fees, distribute them amongst leases, and create multiple payment transactions.
