No. Sorry. Didn't put the question right. I mean automatic post to the account
showing what's owing so that I can see (and print out) at any time (on week by
week steps) the balance of the account at that date.
Because in fact they're frequently in the red.
And frequently in front, ironically, because they never match payments up with
owings. So when they come from behind they may finish up with balance of an
amount like maybe $27.50 , not enough for a week's rent but nevertheless by
law I must consider it rental money.
I guess if we credit their account with the monies they pay in then I'd be
talking about an automatic debit of the rent amount each week.
Would that be right? Save me the trouble of entering it on the due date every
week.
Or am I going about it all wrong?

Sure, you can set up a scheduled transaction to record it, but that of
course assumes that the rent check DOES come every week...
