They upload the Units Consumed,\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/adda.io\/apartment-communication-software#scroll\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ADDA calculates<\/a> and posts the Bills according to the rates they have set up.<\/p>\n<p>Bill amounts are like Rs.550.40,\u00a0 Rs.340.85 etc.<\/p>\n<p>Now, when the Resident makes payment, he issues the Cheque for Rs.550. He ignores the 40 paise.<\/p>\n<p>In the next bill, his arrears show as 40 paise. His name also shows on the automatic Defaulters List. This he finds annoying and complains to the Association (our Customer).<\/p>\n<p>So, the Customer asks, can ADDA round it off to the nearest figure.<\/p>\n<p>Inshaallah*, ADDA can.<\/p>\n<p>But then, we know another challenge this Customer has, and how this annoyance can be a boon there.<\/p>\n<p>They are trying hard to make Residents adopt a new habit &#8211; pay using the Online <a href=\"https:\/\/adda.io\/apartment-communication-software#scroll\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Payment Gateway<\/a>, instead of Cheques.<\/p>\n<p>Advantage for the Association when Payment Gateway is used: Handling 240 cheques every month for such small amounts is high Admin overhead. If PG is used, everything is automated, zero Admin overhead.<\/p>\n<p>Advantage for the Resident: Doesn&#8217;t have to bother about writing amount, system populates the full amount to be paid &#8211; Rs. 550.40<\/p>\n<p>Thankfully, the Customer sees the point.<\/p>\n<p>Some Technical Annoyances can be useful too!<\/p>\n<p>* &#8211; Read &#8220;&#8221;Product Team willing&#8221;&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A LEAF FROM THE TEAM JOURNAL Just had a call with a Customer &#8211; Treasurer of a Housing Society with 240 Apartments.
