Step 1 – Watch a Demo & View Testimonials

While we’re adamant that the comprehensive features of Enumerate Central will outperform any other program, you’ll want to do some homework to make sure we’re the best choice for you.

Start by watching a demo and viewing some of the testimonials from our customers. It’s always good to hear how a tool is working for others in a similar situation to you.

Step 2 – Get Started

Next, you’ll want to contact a Sales Rep to get started with Enumerate Central.

Your Sales Rep and Customer Success Rep will walk you through the process. Enumerate has an onboarding process set up with your success in mind, making transitioning as painless as possible.

Step 4 – Set Up the Foundation

We want to ensure all the basics are set up correctly right out of the gate so that you can avoid problems later.

We’ll assist you in setting up users, setting their permissions, and creating your Global Processes like Banks, Custom Fields, and Templates.

Before you start adding team members, create roles with personalized permissions for each. This process will make it easier when adding new users in the future.

Adding in bank information is simple. Just have your bank’s address, routing number, and any additional information needed to run Accounts Payable.

You’ll also need to edit your templates in Microsoft Word using merge codes and configure them in Enumerate. And finally, create custom fields to keep track of key information about your communities, owners, properties, and more.

Step 5 – Configure Community-Specific Information

Now that you have all the basics set up, it’s time to move on to more details regarding admin, accounting, and management.

As a property management company with more than one community, this is where you’ll delineate who has access to which communities, which custom fields are assigned to which communities and users, and you’ll be able to create custom reports and packages that include multiple reports.

In the accounting section of this step, you’ll associate bank accounts and signatures to each community, set up your general ledger and accounts, manage codes, and streamline the collections process with automated actions like sending letters and applying fees.

The management setup is related to, you guessed it, actually managing the properties. Each setup task involves things that will help you with inspections, maintenance, editing files, managing vendors, and other regularly recurring tasks. Take your time and finish everything, as it will help you save time in the long run.

Voila! Total Property Management in One System

Following these five easy steps will put you on the right track towards success with Enumerate Central.
