What: Property managers can now add or remove a renter directly from the property page, on both ingoing and active tenancies. The feature is also available within the Set up new tenancy action in the new tenancy project.

Why: When a tenancy is first set up, it's not uncommon for a renter to be accidentally left off or incorrectly added. Previously there was no way to correct this without contacting support. This gives agencies a quick, self-serve way to fix setup mistakes without raising a ticket.

How: Open the Manage menu on the tenancy card on the property page and select Add renter or Remove renter. You'll be prompted to type a confirmation phrase before the change is made - the phrase must match exactly, so take care with spelling. Note that this feature is for correcting setup mistakes only. If a renter is joining or leaving an existing tenancy mid-lease, a Change of shared tenancy project should be used instead. Renters cannot be added to tenancies that started more than 4 weeks ago, and the sole renter on a tenancy cannot be removed using this method.

What: The income by fee category report can now be filtered by legal entity, so agencies with multiple trading entities can isolate their income reporting per entity.

Why: Agencies operating under more than one legal entity had no way to separate income by entity in the report. This meant downloading the data and manually splitting it, or relying on property manager groupings that didn't always align. This filter gives business owners and accountants a clean view of income per entity without the workaround.

How: Open the Income by fee category report. You will see a new Legal entity filter alongside the existing date and team filters. Select the entity you want to report on and the report will update to show only income attributed to properties managed under that entity.

What: Every weekly release now comes with ready-to-use presentation slides that your team leads can download and present at their weekly meetings.

Why: Keeping the whole team across Ailo updates can be tricky when release notes live on a web page that not everyone checks. These slides give team leads a simple way to bring updates into the meetings that are already happening, so the whole office stays informed and can talk through how new features apply to their day-to-day.

How: Head to the latest release on ailo.io/whats-new. At the bottom of each release, you will find a link to download the PowerPoint slides. Open the file, pick the version that suits your meeting format, and present it as part of your weekly team catch-up.

Shoutout to Jodie from Brisbane for the idea to make release updates easier to share across the team.
