Teamwork makes the dream work. A band in perfect harmony. A well-oiled machine. Quack, Quack, Quack, Quack!  [Insert more teamwork sayings]
Whether you work in pods, teams, or with remote professionals, being able to seamlessly delegate tasks to different team members is critical. And now you can, with bills.

✅ Assign bill drafts to colleagues
✅ Filter draft bills by assignee
✅ Get notifications when draft bills are assigned to you
✅ Bills are automatically linked to the right team once a property is selected
✅ Filter draft bills by team

“That's really awesome, this helps us keep our process tight. When we get bills wrong, it costs us money.”

— Nakita Baron, General Manager at CBS Property Group
Even more enhancements to bills are coming
Soon, the Ailo platform will even be able to read invoices and auto-fill draft bills for you!! Keep reading our release notes every Thursday for updates.

Taking compliance off your plate

✅ Way better visibility and more ways to pay PCA Compliance bills

All future-dated monthly bills for PCA Compliance subscriptions appear in the bills tab for you and your investors to see clearly now. And, investors can now choose to pay any of these with direct debit or card if they don’t want to use rental income one month.
Not using Compliance in Ailo?
Keeping rental properties compliant under the patchwork of evolving legislation is a lot of work. Did you know Ailo offers a fully-integrated property compliance solution, with automated work orders and monthly invoicing?

It's the little things 💪

✅ Soz, some of the buttons when you added bills were not all they were quacked up to be. Now they fit the bill!

We’re determined to fill these release notes with duck puns, and make adding bills an “easy peasy” experience (that is a direct quote from Jatin, one of our product managers! 🤭). You pointed out that some of the original button names were… vague. And confusing.
Joe in Cairns, QLD - thanks for the constructive feedquack!
We pinched some notes from our product designers, to show you the old versus new (in blue writing) button names 👉

✅ Another button ‘tweak’: Inspections

When you copy from your last inspection to create a new one, we’ve made it crystal clear that you are pulling “From most recent” (not “from previous”).

✅ FYI transfer summary emails will be sent a little later in the day

This change does not impact the actual disbursement for investors or your agency or monthly ownership statements.

Shh! Secret Squirrel 🐿️

Every month, we’ll take a peek at our roadmap and share a sneaky glimpse of a new feature we’re building that our customers asked for. Just don’t tell the product managers 😉 – Liz & Emma from Marketing

Like a certain feathered friend in water, some things just make sense. Like only showing cleared transactions on statements.

To avoid confusion, soon only the trust transactions that clear in the Ailo portfolio wallet within the statement period will be included in their statements. We currently include all transactions that have been receipted and sometimes it throws them off. Not anymore! Bill-iant!
Kathie & Kerrianne in Orange, NSW – thanks for your feedback on this one, we’re almost live!

We already receive a lot of great feedback, but we want more (we’re greedy ). To thank you, we'll regularly award some of our favourite ideas with a $50 Mecca, BWS or The Iconic gift voucher.

🎉Congrats Jess K from HQ Property!

“It would be great to flag urgent jobs more clearly, e.g. highlighted in the actions list.”

I agree, Jess! Knowing how to prioritise tasks is key to taking control of your day. Part of our plans to improve My Actions is to make it immediately clear, when you look at your day, what should be done first. For certain things, like urgent repairs, we may even help by highlighting them automatically! Watch this space.
– Lav, from the product team
