Record rent in one command

One WhatsApp message records cash, updates the invoice, and tallies your day.

cash A1 8000

What it does

Most owners run rent collection from a paper notebook: tenant pays cash, you scribble the entry, then later (sometimes never) post it into a spreadsheet. PG Saathi removes those two steps. The bot accepts a single command, generates the receipt, applies it to the right open invoice (oldest first), and updates that month's status to paid or partial.

Overpayment is impossible: the RPC refuses to write more than the invoice's outstanding balance. If a tenant pays more than they owe, the bot tells you — you record the rest as a deposit or adjust the next month.

At the end of the day you can ask `report day` and the bot returns the daily total. No reconciliation needed; the numbers in your books are the same numbers in the bot.

On WhatsApp

  • `cash A1 8000` — record ₹8,000 in room A1.
  • `balance` — see who owes how much, sorted by overdue.
  • `report day` — today's collection total.

On the dashboard

/payments → Record cash payment. Pick the room, type the amount. Same RPC, same guards.

Why it matters

GST audits depend on tight cash records. With a paper ledger, a missing entry takes hours to find. With PG Saathi, every rupee is timestamped and tied to an invoice and tenant — exporting a year of records is one click.
