Property — landlords and agents
Setup — your own numbers, groups and fees
Property → Setup holds what you would otherwise ask a developer to change. Only the owner and managers open it.
Unit numbers
| Format | Example |
|---|---|
| Floor numbers | 101, 102 · 201, 202 · G01, M01 |
| Floor letters | A1, A2 · B1, B2 · G1, M1 |
| One running number | 1, 2, 3, 4 |
The company has a default, and each building can have its own. With floor letters, G and M mean the ground and the mezzanine, so the floors skip those letters: the 6th is F, the 7th H. A building with its own letters types them in What each floor starts with. A Prefix goes in front of every number: A with 101 gives A101.
To renumber a building you already have:
- Open Property → Setup, choose the format and press Rename units.
- Pick the building and check the list of every old and new number.
- Confirm. Tenancies, meters and balances stay with the unit; invoices already issued keep the number they were printed with.
Groups, the service fee and your lists
- Floors: name your ground floor and mezzanine the way you say them.
- Unit groups: several units known by one name, such as a madarasa or a masjid. On
Units, tick them and type the name under Group under one name (
nonetakes them out). Each unit keeps its own tenancy, rent and invoices. - The service fee for looking after a landlord's unit: a percent of rent or a fixed amount a month, per building, with a default for new buildings. A unit can have its own, on its form or for many at once on Units. A fee set on a unit whose landlord lives in it is billed to them with the month's charges.
- Property types and sale conditions are your own lists: add, rename (everything using it follows), move, hide or delete one nobody uses. A hidden type leaves the drop-downs and the website.
- Payment terms and the tenant's notice period start from here. Empty means one month.
