Collections overview

The collections workflow tracks tenant arrears cases from initial detection through to resolution. Each case provides a structured timeline, health scoring, and integration with notice generation and evidence bundles.

When a case is created​

A collections case is created when rent arrears are detected on a lease. Each case tracks:

  • The associated lease and tenant
  • Outstanding arrears amount
  • Related N4 notice (if issued)
  • Payment intents and arrangements
  • LTB hearing dates and orders
  • Evidence bundle references

Case stages​

Cases progress through 9 sequential stages:

Resolution types​

A case can be resolved as:

  • Paid — Tenant paid the full arrears
  • Evicted — Tenant vacated after LTB order
  • Agreement — Payment arrangement reached and completed

Cases are automatically resolved when all associated invoices are paid in full. The collections orchestrator monitors payments and updates case status.
