Suggested settlements simplify net balances; they do not verify that money moved.

  1. 1

    Review the open ledger

    Confirm expenses, payers, participants, shares, voids, and prior settlements.

  2. 2

    Read the suggestions

    AirplaneHQ nets member balances into a smaller set of proposed payments. Verify the direction and amount with the partnership.

  3. 3

    Pay outside AirplaneHQ

    Use the partnership’s approved payment method and retain confirmation where required.

  4. 4

    Record the actual settlement

    Enter payer, recipient, amount, date, and note only after the payment occurs or according to the partnership’s accounting policy.

  5. 5

    Confirm balances

    Recalculate and resolve unexpected residual amounts before closing the period.
