Bulk Participant Updates – Landlord
We have resolved an issue were updating the Landlord using Bulk Participant Updates and synchronizing with Lease Accounting Manager did not accurately update the Vendor and Funder. With this change, the Funder/Landlord will be updated in Lease Accounting Manager. However, users still need to manually update to the correct Vendor on the Participant tile within Deal Summary of Lease Accounting Manager.

Adding Vendor Field for Recurring Invoices
Real Estate Manager has introduced a new feature where users can now specify a Vendor for each recurring invoice template, allowing for more precise payment processing.
Key Features:
-
Vendor Field Addition:
A new Vendor field has been added to the recurring invoice template.
The default value of this field is set to the current Landlord of the contract.
-
Vendor Customization:
Users can update the Vendor field to reflect different Vendors for various payments (e.g., CAMS, insurance, electricity provider, and Landlord).
This allows users to create specific invoice templates for each Vendor and save them in the system.
-
Multiple Vendor Payments:
Users can now manage payments to multiple Vendors for a single contract by creating separate invoice templates for each Vendor.
The system will save each invoice template with the corresponding Vendor value, ensuring accurate payment processing.
Note: Note: Please remember after updating the Landlord via Bulk Participant Update, the user will need to perform a lease variation and update the recurring reviews with the updated Vendor.
