There are frequently small improvements which get added to Rentec Direct which often do not get the attention they deserve.\u00a0 Someday we hope to have a complete changelog posted of every little update, no matter how insignificant, for those who may be interested.\u00a0 In the meantime, here’s a few updates that have happened so far in 2009.<\/p>\n

Attachments to existing transactions: <\/strong> While it’s been possible for some time to add an attachment to a transaction as it’s being built, you can now add an attachment to any existing transaction by editing the transaction, and choosing ‘add attachment’.<\/p>\n

Review deleted tenants and properties: <\/strong> Prior to this improvement, when a property or tenant was deleted, they were gone forever.\u00a0 Now, you can review any deleted tenant or property by clicking ‘Show Deleted Tenants’ or ‘Show Deleted Properties’ in the lower right corner of the screen.\u00a0 This gives you the added advantage of expiring tenants for which you no longer interact with so they do not take up screen real-estate, but the ability to review all their details if the need arises.<\/p>\n

Tenant Portal<\/a>:<\/strong> A full announcement can be found here<\/a>.\u00a0 The tenant portal allows tenants to login and review their own accounting and make minor setting changes for email preferences.\u00a0 Soon tenants will be able to make payment arrangements within the tenant portal.<\/p>\n

Online Applications<\/a>:<\/strong> Save the paper and hassle of delivering paper applications, and storing them in the endless file folders most of us keep.\u00a0 Take applications online through Rentec Direct’s new online application system.\u00a0 Full announcement here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Small bug fixes: Rentec Direct is a dynamic web based application.\u00a0 Every now and then a Rentec user might use the application in a way we had not anticipated.\u00a0 Sometimes that can result in the system not understanding the data, or treating it in a manner that is not anticipated by the user.\u00a0 This happens with every application ever developed by any software company in the world.\u00a0 Rentec Direct is on top of these when they happen and fix them on the spot.\u00a0 These repairs, although infrequent, happen behind the scenes and your version of Rentec Direct is automatically updated when they do.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
