[sudo-discuss] Invoice 2396 from Omni Commons

As I understand it (and Jenny can correct me), these are automated. Since I
started doing the bookkeeping, I haven't done anything about the invoicing
as I didn't want to overstep, and I felt like I needed a specific "problem"
to fix with regards to the invoicing. That is, if it is a problem.

What is shown is based on what's in the QBO system.. The "balance forward"
is the total rent owed (including back rent). The "new charges" are the
current rent -- I think it is for August -- so next month's rent, giving
people 10 days in advance of the 1st of the month when Omni is supposed to
make the mortgage payment for which these rents go towards.

There is a bunch of money in Sudo's account at Unify that Omni has access
to, but I felt like Finance needed authorization from Sudo to transfer it
to one of Omni's general accounts and apply it to "back rent." Those funds
are still Sudo's money.

Also, if Sudo would like some or all of the back rent waived (due to Covid)
then it is my understanding that Finance supports that proposal, but a
formal proposal would have to be made by someone from Sudo and submitted to
delegates -- at least that was the consensus at the delegates meeting a
month ago when I tried to get the back rent waived on Sudo's behalf.
