When using holding deposit functionality - from 12.151+ some new functionality is available:

  • the number of days that a holding deposit can be held for before an alert is triggered can be set via system configuration - this can now be overridden at tenancy level

  • holding deposits that have been held too long can be identified on the Property Management panel of the Organiser

1. Access holding deposit details

From tenancy

  • Click Financial & Renewals

  • Beside Holding deposit - Held, click link
    Holding Deposit Details screen is shown, see step 2
