# Deposits

> Learn how to create, register, and return deposits.

Yorlet provides a dedicated dashboard and a simple workflow to effectively manage the deposit process, ensuring compliance and transparency. Deposits play a vital role in safeguarding your property and managing financial risks. With Yorlet, you can easily create, register, and return deposits, keeping all deposit-related information in one centralised location. Whether you choose to handle deposits through an integrated deposit protection scheme or manage them off-platform, Yorlet streamlines the process, allowing you to stay organised and confidently handle deposit-related tasks throughout the tenancy lifecycle.

## Supported Deposit Registration Schemes (UK)

Yorlet allows you to create deposit records with the following schemes:

* [Deposit Protection Scheme (DPS)](https://www.depositprotection.com)
* [Tenancy Deposit Scheme (TDS)](https://www.tenancydepositscheme.com)
* [Mydeposits](https://www.mydeposits.co.uk)

Please note that you can restrict certain deposit schemes in your account by navigating to your [Deposit Settings](https://dashboard.yorlet.com/settings/deposits). By toggling these on/off, you can ensure your team doesn’t accidentally register a deposit with the wrong provider.

## Deposit statuses

* **Pending**: The deposit is pending registration.
* **Active**: The deposit has been registered on Yorlet.
* **Releasing**: The tenant will be notified and asked if they agree with the charges that have been added or whether they dispute them.
* **Disputed**: The tenant has disputed the deposit.
* **Pending return**: The tenancy has ended, and the deposit needs to be returned to the tenant.
* **Returned**: The deposit has been returned to the tenant.

## Reporting

If you require a snapshot of all the deposits you are currently holding in your client money account and what has been returned, Yorlet can generate a deposit report. Navigate to the [Deposits report](https://dashboard.yorlet.com/reports/deposits), you can specify dates for the report and are presented with:

* **Returned deposits**: A detailed breakdown of returned deposits during the specified period.
* **Active deposits**: A detailed breakdown of active deposits, including which schemes they are held with and what type they are (insured or custodial).

You can export a copy of this report to CSV using the **Export** button in the top right of the screen. To ensure this report is accurate, it’s important to stay up-to-date with your registration and return processes, as this will directly impact the data found here.
