Directory
Unit holders can decide if they want to publish their number and email on the directory for other unit holders to see. This is controlled via the profile option - more info on this KB article: 5.4.5 Directory


NOTE: The Directory can be turned off for all blocks or defaulted so that you can turn it on and off for each block. See the Portal settings for more info: 5.2.1 Portal Setting - Workbench

Switch Property
Unit holders that own more than one unit where their email address is linked to the multiple units can switch between the properties using this button.
If different units in the same block or different blocks have a people involved record that has the same email address, the system does prompt you if you want to link them. 
This is how you link units to be able to switch property once logged in or pick the unit you wish to select on the portal login page. 
NOTE: The respective logo is shown alongside each property so it is clear to the user which account they are logging in and this makes it clear when they are making payments:

Report A Problem
When unit holders want to report an problem/issue with the property such as roof leaks or broken fence (maintenance work mainly but could be other things as well), they can use this function.
