I’m new to Stessa… tracking rent for a 3 family property. The security deposits are somehow reflected differently for two tenants, causing Stessa to say they are behind, when they are current. Same problem as here: > [@Security deposit leading to outstanding balance on tenant ledger](https://community.stessa.com/t/security-deposit-leading-to-outstanding-balance-on-tenant-ledger/3064): > > I’ve set up all 8 of my properties. One property though I can’t get the deposit entered right. I put it in the Security Deposit field like I did with the others. Then it shows as a debit and that the tenant is past due. It’s not doing this on the other properties. Seems like it’s something simple that I’ve missed but I’m not finding it. Any suggestions appreciated For all tenants, I entered the deposit as “Money In”, under the category “Security Deposits”, and specific to the unit/tenant. However, on the page that summarizes the tenant’s history, the Security Deposits are treated differently. For the two tenants, it is under the “Charge” column. For one tenant, it’s under the “Payment” tab column. They are entered identically on the transactions page, as stated above The only difference I can think of is that the one unit was a split (one deposit was received for both rent and security – and I split it) Chris
