5.1. Creating a New Tenant Entry

To create a new tenant go to the Tenants workarea menu button. A list of all the current tenants listed by name will be presented. Press on the New button to create a new tenant entry. You will see the following screen:

The tenant main data entry area has two fields called Building and Unit. The combination of these two fields is called the building association. The list of buildings is directly taken from the database from the data entered in the building workarea. By associating a tenant with a building and/or unit, the application will assume this represents that the tenant is living in that residence.

The Building Association will display a list of the buildings that have been created and saved in the database. The Building Association will display the name of the building, or if it’s a single building with no name it will display the address. When the selected building is a single residence, the Unit Combo Box will be disabled. If the building is a multi-residence building, a unit must be selected before the application will allow the tenant data to be saved.

** When the building is selected, the address information for the tenant will be automatically filled according to the building information entered. This data can be overwritten by simply typing in the values in the appropriate fields.
