i-Account User Guide – Virtual Account Number

i-Account User Guide – Virtual Account Number

Introduction

If you are subscribed to a Virtual Account service provided by your bank, i-Account has a feature that supports the import of these numbers for display on invoices. Under this Virtual Account arrangement, the bank provides a range of Virtual Account Numbers that are assigned to all unit owners for their respective payments to the JMB/MC. The number which is unique to each unit can be imported and subsequently displayed on all invoices billed and shared using i-Neighbour.

When owners make payment crediting to the assigned bank Virtual Account Number, this information will be reflected in the bank statement for easy tracing and payer (unit) identification. 


Import Virtual Account Number into i-Account

1. Usually, Virtual Account Number is first entered/imported into i-Neighbour.

Go to Community > Manage Unit. Select a unit and click on ‘Edit Unit Information’ to review the Virtual Account Number assigned for the unit.

  

2. Next, login to i-Account, go to Property > Setup > Unit Setup page. Click on the ‘Import Units’ button to import the Virtual Account Number from i-Neighbour into i-Account.
