If the customer is an existing tenant who wants to rent an additional unit, select the tenant’s name from the tenant list.

A prompt will ask whether you would like to make the anniversary billing date for the new unit the same as the existing unit. 

Note: This prompt will not appear if your facility uses first-of-month billing.

5. On the next screen under Account, make any changes needed to the tenant’s move-in date, billing frequency, and billing settings are correct. 

The move-in date can be backdated or set to a future date (depending on your settings). 

Note: If monthly billing is chosen, the tenant cannot change to daily, weekly, or 28-day billing once the move-in is saved. The tenant must be moved out then back in to make that change.
