We even print the map to do what we call "Hard Lock Check" every week. Love it!3

I only use it to locate a unit in relation to a transfer, my guys use it to see where they need to go to show a unit, I cannot print mine out it's not configured to be user friendly. I don't know if that is due to management configurations or SiteLink's. I wish I could type in a unit number and find it quicker, instead of scrolling all over the page looking for the unit. Or maybe there is that option and I am not aware of it?1

I refer to our map all the time-I find it very helpful.1

Reconfiguring the map due to layout changes is NOT user friendly0

Hi, I don't print my vacant list, I always look at the map and go from there.2

Amy Registered User, Daily Operations Certified, Advanced Operations Certified, Administrator Certified ✭✭We use our map for everything. I love using it for cleaning out units and keeping track of which ones are completed and I also use it for over-locks. It seems to not take as long to accomplish certain tasks when you have a layout of the property. It is also very helpful to print out a map to show units.0

No use for us day to day. I normally use it to monitor my servicing schedule other than that we tend to use the 'Payments' screen to acceess tenants information and details. We do use the map as an overview to the site.0

I use the map pretty much for everything. My unit numbers are not in order. It would be nice to be able to enter into a search area unit number and then it would highlight the selected unit of interest. Or even a tenant name for a quicker process. Sometimes a tenant will call and as if there is another unit close to theirs but they cannot remember their number. So I have to go back to the payment screen then back to the map.0

We use the map a lot and especially with transfers.0

Starting to use it more and more now I've watched the webinar.1

Christine505 Registered User, Daily Operations Certified, Administrator Certified, myHub Certified ✭I love the map. I wish Sitelink would've built it for us when we converted to their software though. I'd also like to be able to change the color so they would print up better, I haven't been able to figure that out yet.. any advice would be greatly appreciated!!

@Christine505, glad you like the map! The colors are set to make it easy to troubleshoot, and they can't be changed at this time.
For ideas on making units stand out more on the map, check out this discussion on ADA map units.1 -
The August Poll will be closing at the end of the day today. Thanks everyone for voting! It was a very popular topic and we appreciate everyone's feedback and comments on using the SiteLink Maps.Stay tuned for the September Poll to be posted soon.1

LSAirport Registered User, Daily Operations Certified, Advanced Operations Certified, Administrator Certified ✭✭I wish that in Simple View it would print with no color instead of the blue color that it now does... Would make reading the unit numbers easier to read, almost impossible to read now! Much less if you print it out. If you could print it out without color just the unit outline you could "color it" manually if you wish, ie units to be cleaned, inspected, repaired ets...0
