Another popular request that our dev team just completed is for the ability for landlords\/property managers to maintain a list of popular or frequently used vendors within Rentec Direct.\u00a0 Think of it as your property management address book and it doesn’t have to be only for vendors.\u00a0 It’s easier than ever to create workorders now because within each new or existing workorder is a dropdown of all configured vendors.<\/p>\n

To use this new feature, visit the Settings <\/em>tab, and select Setup Vendors<\/em>.\u00a0 Enter the necessary information, save, and then the next workorder you enter you can simply select the vendor from the dropdown menu instead of typing in the info each time.\u00a0 Upon selection, the vital contact information for the vendor selected immediately pops up below your selection so you have a number to call and schedule the repair.\u00a0 No more flipping through the rolodex!<\/p>\n
