Version 4.1 has arrived, and although its not as jam packed as version 4.0 we are confident that it will have something that you will make use of!

Firstly we would like to thank the UI design team for their constant work on finding the best design for ease of use of each page in the software, our section by section review only has 2 places left to re-design in this revamp of the UI, that's the housekeeping and the service request sections. These will both be revamped before the release of version 4.4, we have however made some changes to these as you will see below on the update notes.

Why the title "Turn the lights on with 4.1" ? - Well that's because we are proud to announce the release of the "Lights On Sidebar" - At the top of your page, click your account button (The one with your name and profile photo) on the dropdown menu, you will now see a new button to click "Light Theme". When you click this new button your sidebar will now turn to the brand new light version, you can switch back to the dark sidebar or "Dark Theme" by clicking that same button. The software will remember your choice forever, so you will never have to worry about switching styles again if you want to stick with one. We know it's not a major software enhancement, but it is a much requested feature and literally something that will, "brighten your day" . (I couldn't stop myself).

So after the brief overview, we present you with the RPM PRO Rentals property management software version 4.1 update notes:

New light theme

(As mentioned and explained above)

We have revamped the admin booking pages in line with our UI restructure. The new changes bring you the "Easy access buttons" at the top of each booking page, intuative search, increased page loading speed, easy access to all other booking pages and a clear overview of booking totals. These new features alongside a cleanup of the display of the bookings brings you a faster booking management system and more time saving for you and your employees.

Property Pages New Features

After getting everything setup for this 4 months ago we have released the updates planned to the property pages to change the way that you select certian features for your property. We have implemented a new checkbox system where on each property you can now select features such as:

• Property Type
• Property Style
• Property Amenities

Ffrom a pre defined set of options. These options are set by you in your "System Settings" menu section and using the 3 pages:

• Property Type Settings
• Property Amenity Settings
• Property Style Settings

To select the options for your properties, simply go to your property info page, select "Update Property Information" to setup your property type or property style, or "Update Amenities" to setup your property amenities. We will be releasing a video shortly to show you exactly how this has changed.

Admin Display Page Revamped

We have revamped the admin section to provide you with the much desired "Easy access buttons" at the top and to clean up the display for you. These buttons provide you easy access to other pages inside the admin setup such as Admins, Landlords, Housekeepers & Service Reps. All of these pages are updated.

We have updated the invoicing system, mainly to make the refunds much easier and faster than ever before.

• New refund button next to actual transaction on view invoice page
• Refund actual transaction on view invoice page with new pop up form
• See refunded transactions with paid transactions on view invoice with new pop up with full refund information
• Edit invoice can now manually set invoice status
• Each line item on edit invoice can be edited

We have implemented both Housekeeping & Service Requests into the new RPM Calendar, this means that the old "Overview Calendar" will now be depreciated. When on the RPM calendar you will see the housekeeping or service request on the property, on the date set in the actual request, if you click on the calendar a popup will appear displaying the request to you, you can update and manage this request without ever leaving the calendar page. The color that the request is displayed in is dependant on the color chosen inside the profile page of the allocated service technician or housekeeper.

That concludes our version 4.1 update notes. Thank you so much for taking the time to read them.

Until next time!

The RPM Pro Team
