Tenant Sort Order

Change the view of your Tenant list with just a few simple steps. Using Program Defaults, Filters, and clickable Sort Options, you can easily customize how tenant information is displayed. 

Setting Defaults for Tenant Page Display

By default, 100 tenants per page are displayed when you click on "Tenants," with page controls at the bottom to navigate to the next or previous page. Save Searches is also enabled by default, so if you return to a page that had a prior search during your session, that search criteria will still apply. 

You can easily change the Number of Results to show on each page of Tenant (and Property) Lists and whether you want to save your searches in Program Defaults.

In your Rentec Direct account: 

  1. Click on Settings
  2. Under Program, click on Program Defaults
  3. Click on Edit Advanced Settings
  4. Under Advanced General Preferences, use the dropdown to select the Number of results to show at once on Property and Tenant Lists: 10, 25, 50, 100, or 250.
  5. Directly below the option to select the Number of Tenants to be displayed is the option to Save Searches. This feature enables you to navigate to another area within your account and then return to your previously saved sort order.
  6. Click on Save Changes

Applying Filters and Sort Orders

With 14 filters to choose from and multiple Sort Order options, quickly create a purposeful Tenant List.

In your Rentec Direct account:

  1. Click on Tenants
  2. Click on the filter dropdown to select the tenant-related status for the report
  3. Click on a header or arrow to sort the data even further. Click on a header or arrow a second time to sort the data in the opposite direction.
  4. To view only a group of tenants, click on the people icon by the primary tenant

Pro Tips:

  • Use the Page Back option to return to the complete, unfiltered Tenant List
  • With Save Search enabled, the Tenant List with selected Sort Orders will be available until the filter and options are changed, even after leaving the screen.
