Moderan provides you with the ability to keep various documents and records of events related to negotiations and contract updates as well as Building documentation in the Interactions & files block.


Example I: You have building certificates, documents, blueprints, and files from the Building Registry and want to ensure easy access to them at all times.



Example II: You need to keep track of maintenance/service agreements and insurance policies, including their expiration dates, to stay ahead of renewals and compliance requirements.

Setting Tasks and Reminders


When the interaction is saved with a future date, Moderan automatically sets a reminder.

Program indicates, that Interaction has a reminder by adding the Bell icon next to the date:


NB! Interaction reminders are sent personally to the email in the Assignee field, unlike the general Contract reminders.



Ending a Task or Reminder

Hint! By default an interaction will be marked as done automatically, if you are adding it with date in the past or today (not future). You can always remove tick manually, if needed.



Types of Interactions & files in Moderan


In Moderan you can record various types of files and activities. By default Interaction & Files have the Following Types:

  • Certificate
  • Contract
  • Deed
  • Interaction
  • Other



Hint! For a better overview you might want to add more Document types (Insurance, Plans, Technical documents, etc.), this can be done by Admin users in the Admin > Settings section:



We highly recommend maintaining records of Contracts and Deeds (such as Acts of Space Transfer or Amendments related to Monthly Rent changes) and setting future Meeting dates to remind yourself (or other active users) of potential term changes following negotiations. 



Interactions & files in Requests

 Contracts > Requests


All Interaction & file block will be transferred automatically to Rental Contracts, when the Request is converted to Contract.



Adding Interactions & files to the Request is exactly the same process as adding them to the Contracts.
