Built from your ledger, not re-keyed
Your Schedule E figures come straight from Aptoria's double-entry general ledger, so the income and expense totals on the form are the same numbers your books carry all year — not something re-entered at tax time. Every rent payment collected and every expense recorded lands in the ledger as it happens, and the Schedule E view rolls those up by category per property.
Because the ledger is the source, the figures reconcile: what shows as income matches what actually settled, and deposits you are holding are excluded, since a deposit is a liability rather than rental income.
What the package includes
The Schedule E package organizes your rental activity into the categories the form uses — rents received, and expenses like repairs, insurance, management, and the rest — per property. Depreciation is handled as its own line, since a building and certain improvements are written off over time rather than expensed in the year you pay for them.
Where you paid contractors enough to trigger 1099 reporting, Aptoria tracks that alongside your expenses so the 1099 side and your deduction side come from the same records. This is general tax information, not advice; how a specific item is treated can depend on your situation, so your accountant has the final say.
From the tax reports screen you produce the Schedule E package and export the figures, either to hand to your accountant or to carry into your own filing software. If you have given your CPA a read-only login, they can pull it themselves without you assembling anything.
The export reflects the period you choose, so you can produce a full tax-year package or a narrower range to check the numbers as you go. The totals are only as complete as your books, so it is worth reconciling your bank activity before you rely on the figures.
