Software Update: Start Date for Instructions

Our buildings find the "Instructions" module in BuildingLink--a place where they can track permissions-to-enter, do-not-allows, housekeeper visits, and other resident instructions--to be one of the most valuable tools for front desk staff in BuildingLink's arsenal. As you probably already noticed, we’ve recently made that tool even more powerful by adding a “start date” function. Now, you can enter the text of your instruction, pick the date when it should take effect, and pick the date when it should expire—all upon your initial entry.

Instructions that have a “future” start date will show up on the main Current Instructions grid when that date is reached. But you can still see your Future Instructions by clicking on the Instructions “Settings” bar, where you’ll also be able to see “Newly Added” instructions (all instructions added in the last 24 hours).
