Help Center
You can now create direct links to pages in the Help Center and share the links with other people in your organization.
Mobile Apps
This release includes enhancements to the Yardi Breeze Mobile App.
Property
There is a new option for recurring payments: Allow Max Amount Less than Lease Charges (PWIO). This option allows tenants to set up a Pay What I Owe recurring payment with a maximum amount lower than the amount of the scheduled monthly charges.
Accounting
If you use Full Service CHECKscan, you can now ask for a check to be re-scanned, destroyed or returned.
CHECKscan checks can now be linked to receipts from owners or receipts from non-owners -- vendors and customers.
You can now write off charges in bulk, instead of doing them manually one by one. You can search for overdue charges, select the ones you want to write off, and click Post. For each charge, Breeze creates a negative charge and a zero receipt.
We added a new option to the Company Settings screen: Calculate Tax on Total. When it is turned on, the system calculates the tax amount for a charge as a percentage of the total amount. When it is turned off, the system calculates the tax amount for each line item on the charge, rounds it up to two decimals, and then sums the line item amounts to get a total tax amount, which may result in small differences caused by rounding. (Note: The system calculates the tax on the total when the charge is saved in a batch.)
Maintenance Requests
You can now pull maintenance requests into invoices and put them through an approval workflow. Previously, you could only pull them into payables.
On the Maintenance Request screen, there is a new tab: Labour. On this tab, you can track the time one or more employees spent on the request.
Note: These features only work for Advanced Maintenance Requests.
Data Imports
To help you get started in Breeze, you can now import open AR transactions, including charges and deposits, open AP, and then the beginning balances for each G/L account.
Reporting
On the Bank Register report, you can now enter a specific starting date in the date range filter. Previously, you could only select a starting month, and the report defaulted to the first of the month.
We made the following changes to existing reports:
When you run financial reports using a property list and export them to Excel, there is now an option to "un-consolidate" the list, so you can see data for each property separately.
We added the ability to export vendor ledgers to Excel.
On the Owner Correspondence screen, there is now a CC field that allows you to specify additional contacts to CC on the email sent.
On all Correspondence screens, there is a new option to use the current user's email address as the Sender.
You can now track expenses by unit.
The Deleted Objects section of the Activity report now provides more information about each deleted object or person.
Tokens
With this release, we are adding the following tokens:
A token for the last four digits of the credit card used on an autopay schedule.
Tokens for the vehicle information are stored on the Other Info tab of the Owner screen.
Lease Builder Changes
We added the ability to keep the margins set up on the original document uploaded in Breeze for leases in the Property Lease Editor.
