Notes are the place for you and your team to record short notices. You can keep track of the strategic documentation related to your portfolio and assign tasks for your team members concerning a specific property, lease, unit or anything concerning your account.
If a note is assigned to you, you will get a notification of it when you login next time.

The difference between a task and a note
Using task will allow you to add a due date, status, and assign it to specific user(s) (a private individual) or a group based on their role, e.g. landlord.
How to link notes
By linking a note, it will become visible to all users who have access to the linked portfolio, property, unit, lease, or tenant. If you don’t link a note, it is only visible to you and the person who you may have assigned it to.
Viewing and searching notes
In the Notes view, you have separate tabs for All, Tasks and Notes.
You can search notes in the Global search, with a keyword e.g. the property name or tag, sort them by date or due date, or filter based on
- assigned to
- type
- status
- portfolio
- assigned to me
- created by me
The red line on the left side indicates that the due date is passed but the status is still open or in progress.
All linked notes can be found on the Notes tab of the property / unit / lease / tenant (contact).
