Make a cost centre for each building, and for each unit if you want that detail. Rent invoices and maintenance bills are tagged to it, staff cost is moved onto it from the payroll entry, and the P&L shows what each one earns.
Each tenancy is a recurring invoice, monthly, quarterly or yearly, issued on the day you choose and emailed. Send the link on WhatsApp from your phone, and add a payment link once a payment provider is connected.
When a tenant pays by cheque, record the receipt with the cheque number and date. It waits in undeposited funds until you bank it, and several cheques banked on one slip go in as one deposit, so the bank statement matches.
When you invoice a full year up front, the line is held in deferred revenue and recognised month by month, so each month carries its own rent.
Recurring rent invoices, simplified tax invoices for individual tenants and full ones for companies, credit notes for rent relief, and payment links once a payment provider is connected.
Each building, floor or unit as a cost centre with its own P&L, so you see which property carries its costs.
A UAE chart of accounts in Arabic and English, bank reconciliation, undeposited funds for cheques, deferred revenue, and fixed assets for buildings, lifts and fit-out you own.
Purchase orders and bills from maintenance, cleaning and security contractors, with an approval limit so a large repair waits for a second person.
Watchmen, cleaners and the office team in AED, with a WPS SIF salary file, end-of-service gratuity accrued monthly and payslips in both languages.
When each building sits in its own company, run them under one login with consolidated statements: up to 3 companies on Growth and 25 on Premium.
Under the VAT law, residential property is exempt apart from its first supply within three years of completion, which is zero-rated, and bare land is exempt. Shops, offices and warehouses are normally standard-rated at 5%. Agree the treatment of each lease with your adviser, set the tax code on each invoice line, and Aqid ERP keeps exempt, zero-rated and standard-rated rent in their own VAT 201 boxes.
UAE e-invoicing covers invoices to businesses and government; sales to individuals are outside the phases announced so far. So rent invoices to company tenants will travel through an accredited service provider, from 1 July 2027 for a landlord under AED 50 million of revenue, while those to families do not. Aqid ERP keeps signed PINT AE XML with every invoice, but it is not a provider and its connection to one is not yet live.
A landlord who bills only individuals still needs a provider to receive suppliers' e-invoices once they start.

Residential rent is exempt under Article 46 of the VAT law, apart from the first supply of a new building, and commercial units are normally standard-rated at 5%. Agree each lease with your adviser, use the right tax code on each tenant's invoice, and the VAT 201 picks up both from the books.
No. There is no Ejari or other tenancy-registration integration, no rent contract module and no unit register. Each unit is a cost centre and each tenancy a recurring invoice.
Each cheque is recorded as a receipt with its number and date, held in undeposited funds until you bank it. There is no register that tracks post-dated cheques before they are due, so keep that schedule outside Aqid ERP for now.
Invoices to company tenants do, once your phase starts: 1 July 2027 below AED 50 million of revenue, after appointing an accredited service provider by 31 March 2027. Rent billed to individuals is outside the phases announced so far. Aqid ERP keeps signed PINT AE XML with each invoice; its provider connection is not yet live.
Yes. Tag invoices and bills to the building's or unit's cost centre, move staff cost onto it, and run its P&L.
Invoice the year and the line is held in deferred revenue, recognised a month at a time, so a single month does not show a year's rent.
Set up for the UAE's rules from the first day.
