# Deposits received

### When is the entry created?

As soon as **all** parties have signed a rental agreement, Immodio automatically creates an entry for the deposit agreed in the tenancy.

The entry is initially created as **unpaid income**. The "unpaid" status remains visible in the overview until the deposit payment has been received and you have adjusted the payment status manually.

### Which details does Immodio fill in?

Immodio fills in the most important entry data automatically:

| Tenancy                  | The tenancy that was signed                                                                                   |

| VAT                      | 0%                                                                                                            |

| Entry text / description | Deposit with the unit and the tenant's name, for example "Deposit - Hausweg 1 - 1st floor - Krause, Jakobitz" |

### What do you still have to do?

Once the deposit has reached you, open the entry and set the appropriate **payment status**, for example **bank**, **cash**, **private** or **credit**. This documents that the deposit has been paid.

{% hint style="info" %}
Deposit entries are not allocated to the operating cost statement. The **"Recoverable in the operating cost statement"** switch therefore stays disabled.
