Inviting vendor from their contact record

You can also manage the vendors permissions from their contact record.

To stop sharing PropertyFile with a vendor, remove all their shared settings and their account will be disabled.

Resend invite email or reset password email

You can resend a PropertyFile activation either by resending the invite email or by sending a password reset.

 Note

  • Vendors need to choose a strong password that is at least 8 characters long. It needs to contain upper and lowercase letters and at least 1 number
