▶ Contracts > Requests, Rental Contracts, Service Contracts


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


This block is available in the Rental Contracts, Service Contracts and Requests. It has the same functionality across the Moderan.

The fields in Pop-up table:

  • Date* - mandatory field. You may add documents and interactions with current date or dates in the past for ones that already happened. You may add future dates to keep reminders about upcoming tasks/events;

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.

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).


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



You can create your own types in the Admin > Settings > Customizing contract fields (available only for Admin user):



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.


Documents

▶ Contracts > Documents


All files uploaded in the Interactions & files block are gathered together under the Documents tab:


Documents table works the same way as any other table in Moderan:

  • You can arrange columns in certain order (by grabing column header and dragging it to a desireble place);
  • You can sort columns by assending or dessending order;
  • It is possible to Hide some columns or Show all of them;
  • You can Filter Documents by certain cryteria (File Name, document Type, Date, Property, etc.);
  • It is possible to search through all Documents uploaded in your entire Portfolio with the key words.



Documents list can be exported to Excel.
