How does August handle rent arrears?

When rent is not received by the due date, August flags the tenancy as overdue and sends you and your tenant an alert immediately. If a tenant pays partially, August records the exact shortfall and carries it forward to the next period, you always see the precise outstanding balance rather than a generic overdue status. For arrears that persist, August sends follow-up reminders automatically. All arrears history is stored in the tenancy record so you have a clear audit trail if you ever need to take formal action.
