Check in manager

Enable the check in/out manager for your tenancies.

This will appear on the Contracts dashboard underneath the Tenants section.

When checking a tenant in:

  • Don't notify me if the tenants deposit is unpaid

  • Notify me if the tenants deposit is unpaid

  • Prevent check-in if the tenants deposit is unpaid

When checking a tenant out:

  • Don't notify me if the tenants rent is unpaid

  • Notify me if the tenants rent is unpaid

  • Prevent check-out if the tenants rent is unpaid

You have the option to undo the check in/check out date for a tenant if they were set incorrectly.

Important note:

  • The check-in date (when set) does not impact the start date of the tenancy.

  • The check-out date (when set) does impact the end date of the tenancy.

    • When a tenant is checked out, the status of their tenancy is set to 'cancelled', with the check out date serving as the effective date. However, unlike the 'cancellation' process, the tenant would not be notified when they're checked out.

  • If you check a tenant out, you will need to freeze their rent collection from the Rents dashboard. Rent collections are only frozen automatically for cancelled tenancies (using the cancel tenancy button from the core details on the Contracts dashboard).

  • When set from the tenancy, the check in/check out dates will appear on the Booking Summary tenancy report.
