Tenvale's reports draw from two inputs you control day to day: the expenses you log and the payments you record. This article covers logging expenses, how the categories map to your tax return, and each report available on the Reports page.
Logging expenses
Each expense you log is tagged by property, vendor, and category, and can carry a receipt photo. If a cost repeats — insurance, a service contract, a mortgage payment — you can schedule it as a recurring expense instead of re-entering it every period.
Expense categories map to Schedule E
Every expense category corresponds to a line on IRS Schedule E, Part I:
| Category | Schedule E line |
|---|---|
| Advertising | 5 |
| Auto & travel | 6 |
| Cleaning & maintenance | 7 |
| Commissions | 8 |
| Insurance | 9 |
| Legal & professional fees | 10 |
| Management fees | 11 |
| Mortgage interest | 12 |
| Other interest | 13 |
| Repairs | 14 |
| Supplies | 15 |
| Taxes | 16 |
| Utilities | 17 |
| Capital improvement | 18 |
| Other | 19 |
Two categories need a second look. Mortgage interest (line 12) covers interest only — the principal portion of a mortgage payment is never deductible, so don't log the full payment under this category. Capital improvement (line 18) is capitalized rather than deducted in the year you pay it; Tenvale keeps these amounts out of your current-year deductible total and shows them separately on the Schedule E summary.
Reports
The Reports page brings together six reports plus the 1099-NEC report on its own page:
- Property P&L. Income, expenses, net operating income, and occupancy per property. Exports to CSV.
- Cash-flow statement. A date-range statement you can filter to one property, with income, operating expenses, NOI, and net cash. Exports to CSV and PDF.
- Schedule E summary. An annual, cash-basis summary per property, mapped to the lines above. Exports as CSV, a PDF tax package, a Form 4562 depreciation CSV, and a QuickBooks import CSV.
- Delinquency report. Past-due rent aged into 0–30, 31–60, 61–90, and 90+ day buckets, with a send-reminder action on each row. Exports to CSV.
- Rent roll. A snapshot of active tenancies. Exports to CSV.
- 1099-NEC report. Vendor payment totals compared against the IRS filing threshold, alongside each vendor's W-9 status from the vendor directory.
The 1099-NEC report
This report surfaces vendors whose payments in eligible service categories cross the year's IRS threshold. It flags them as candidates to verify with your tax professional — it is not a filing determination. Tenvale does not know how a vendor was paid (card payments are reported on Form 1099-K by the processor instead, not by you), and it does not e-file anything. Confirm each flagged vendor's W-9 and payment method before you issue a 1099-NEC.
