As part of the new user interface (UI) project, the tenancy screen has been redesigned to bring it in line with previously redesigned screens

All existing functionality exists but with a refreshed look and feel with enhanced usability features

The tenancy screen is still organised/divided over six screens/tabs, each one is covered in the sections below

Details

The left side of the Details screen pulls together property, landlord & tenant details

1. Landlord Details

  • Clicking the Property address displays the property record

  • Clicking the Landlord name displays the landlord record

  • Use the icons beside the contact details to call, text or email

  • Clicking the Accounts link gives access to the landlord account details

From the Main Tenant panel:

  • Click envelope icon to the right of the main tenant name

    An email with the login details will be generated which you can then send to the tenant
