Automated ManageAmerica Utility Recovery Reconciliation
Every month, once utility bills land, WebRun opens ManageAmerica to total what was billed to residents for water, sewer, and trash recovery, checks it against the actual utility invoices posted in QuickBooks, and logs any variance to a Google Sheet for your billing team to review.
How do I reconcile utility cost recovery billing against actual utility invoices?
WebRun compares what ManageAmerica billed residents for water, sewer, and trash recovery against the actual utility invoices posted in QuickBooks each month, then logs the variance for every utility type to a Google Sheet. Anything over a 5 percent gap is flagged, so your billing team catches under recovery before it compounds.
- Utility under recovery is caught within one billing cycle instead of a year later
- Every utility type gets a logged variance instead of a manual spreadsheet pull
- Anything over a 5 percent gap is flagged for review automatically

Questions, answered
Does it change any resident's bill or post a correction?
No. WebRun only compares numbers and logs the variance to a sheet. Any correction to a resident's account is a decision your billing team makes and enters manually.
How does it flag a real problem versus normal rounding?
It flags any utility type where billed recovery and actual cost differ by more than 5 percent, so small rounding differences do not clutter the report.
What utilities does it cover?
Water, sewer, and trash recovery by default, matching the utility types tracked in ManageAmerica's billing summary. Add or remove a utility type in your run settings.
