How do I assign a vendor to a request?

ForLandlordsProperty managers

Who can do this

Landlord; Organization users with Edit Maintenance Requests.

Where to find it

Maintenance Request → the request → Actions → No vendor assigned select

Steps

  1. Open the vendor select. If the property has preferred vendors, they're grouped under Preferred for this property above All vendors.
  2. Pick the vendor (shown by company name, or name).
  3. To remove the vendor, pick No vendor assigned.

What happens next

The vendor is saved on the request. The vendor is pre-filled if you record a vendor bill when closing the request.

Limits

Kera doesn't contact the vendor. No email, text or work-order link goes to them. Send the details yourself. Vendors are created under Vendors (see the Properties, owners and vendors chapter).

Troubleshooting

"Couldn't assign vendor" or "Couldn't remove vendor": try again.
