Everything You Need to Collect Revenue Efficiently

From property registration to payment reconciliation, explore every tool built into the Property Collection platform.

Real-Time Dashboard & Analytics

The moment a payment is made, your numbers update. No more waiting for end-of-month reconciliations or manually tallying spreadsheets. The dashboard gives your revenue team a live, bird's-eye view of collections across every zone — so you can act on data, not hunches.

  • KPI summary cards — total properties, billed amount, collected, outstanding, and collection rate at a glance
  • Visual collection progress bar with colour-coded health status (green, orange, red)
  • Zone performance ranking — identify top-performing and underperforming zones instantly
  • Properties needing attention — automatically surfaces the top outstanding balances
  • Interactive bar charts showing collections vs outstanding per zone
  • Filter by billing year and multiple zones for focused analysis
  • Personalized greeting and date display for each logged-in user
  • Invoice status breakdown — paid, unpaid, partly paid, and overdue counts

Property Registration & Management

Your property database is the foundation of revenue collection. Property Collection provides a centralized, searchable register of every property in your jurisdiction — with all the details your billing engine needs to generate accurate invoices.

  • Centralized property database with full owner details, address, and contact information
  • Zone and property type classification for accurate rate application
  • Ghana Card / TIN number recording for identity verification
  • GPS coordinates and land size captured for each property
  • Automatic customer account creation when a new property is registered
  • Bulk operations — select and manage multiple properties at once
  • Advanced search, sortable columns, and customizable column visibility
  • Mobile number and WhatsApp number for multi-channel communication

Billing & Invoice Generation

Generate tax bills for hundreds of properties in a single click. The billing engine automatically applies the correct rate based on each property's zone and type — eliminating manual calculations and the need to physically deliver paper bills.

  • Zone-based and property-type-based pricing configuration
  • Multiple price lists per billing year for flexible rate structures
  • Bulk invoice generation — create bills for all properties in one batch
  • Auto-populated amounts from configured price lists — no manual entry
  • Error tracking and retry for any properties that fail during generation
  • Export property lists and invoices to Excel for offline review
  • Status progression — Draft, Invoices Created, Submitted — for clear workflow
  • Billing year management to organise invoices by fiscal period

Payment Tracking & Reconciliation

Every cedi collected is tracked and matched to the right invoice automatically. No more manual ledger entries, no more lost receipts. Your finance team gets a complete, auditable payment history for every single property.

  • Per-property invoice and payment history — see every bill and every payment
  • Live status tracking — Paid, Unpaid, Partly Paid, and Overdue with colour-coded badges
  • Payment mode recording — cash, mobile money, bank transfer, card
  • Automated digital receipt generation for every transaction
  • Print invoices with configurable print formats
  • Financial summary per property — total billed, total paid, outstanding balance
  • Search properties by name or ID to quickly access transaction history
  • Expandable invoice rows with full payment breakdown

Multi-Channel Communication

Reach every resident through the channel they use most. Send tax bills, payment reminders, and notices in bulk — via SMS, WhatsApp, or email — and track delivery status for every message sent. Target only unpaid properties to maximize collection efficiency.

  • Send bills and reminders via Email, SMS, and WhatsApp — all from one interface
  • Filter recipients by zone, billing year, and payment status
  • Target unpaid properties specifically for focused reminder campaigns
  • Bulk messaging with preview of recipient count before sending
  • Communication history — view every message sent with delivery statistics
  • WhatsApp Business API integration via Meta Cloud API
  • Per-message tracking — sent count, failed count, and status badge
  • Compose with subject line (email) or direct message (SMS/WhatsApp)

Reports & Data Export

Whether you need to report to the District Assembly, audit your collections, or analyse trends across zones — four purpose-built reports give you the data you need, and every report can be exported to Excel with a single click.

  • Zone Analysis Report — collection rate, billed amount, and outstanding per zone
  • Invoice Register — every invoice with status, amount, and customer details
  • Property Statement — per-property billing and payment history over time
  • Payment Collections — all transactions with date, mode, party, and zone
  • Export any report to Excel (XLSX) for sharing and offline analysis
  • Filter by date range, zone, billing year, payment status, or specific property
  • Summary badges at the top of each report for quick metrics
  • Data-driven planning — identify low-compliance zones for targeted enforcement

Geofencing & Location Control

Ensure that your portal is only accessed from authorized locations. Geofencing lets administrators define a GPS perimeter around the assembly premises — any user outside that boundary is automatically blocked from accessing the system.

  • Per-user geofence enforcement — each user can have their own access boundary
  • Set GPS coordinates (latitude/longitude) and radius in metres
  • Users outside the perimeter see a clear access-blocked screen
  • "Use My Location" button to auto-detect and set coordinates
  • Enable or disable geofencing per user — flexible for field officers vs office staff
  • Haversine distance calculation for accurate GPS boundary checking

User Management & Permissions

Control exactly who can see and do what. Each user's navigation can be customized to show only the pages relevant to their role — revenue officers see billing, field agents see properties, and administrators see everything.

  • Create and manage system users with email, name, and password
  • Role-based page visibility — hide or show portal pages per user
  • Enable or disable user accounts without deleting them
  • Camera capture for user profile pictures — no file upload needed
  • Send welcome emails to new users automatically
  • Per-user geofence settings alongside permission configuration

Audit Trail & Compliance

Every action taken in the system is silently logged — who did what, when, and from which IP address. This creates a transparent, tamper-proof audit trail that supports accountability and makes regulatory compliance effortless.

  • Complete CRUD action logging — every create, update, and delete is recorded
  • Login and logout tracking with IP address and timestamp
  • Active users monitor — see who is currently online (last 30 minutes)
  • Filter audit logs by user and date range for targeted investigations
  • Non-intrusive silent logging — never disrupts normal operations
  • Colour-coded action badges for quick visual scanning
