FAQ
Q: How can I fix incorrect contact information for all homeowners in an association?
A: Use the Property and Homeowner import in Update Import Mode to edit information in bulk.
Example: If the zip code is incorrect for all owners:
- Create an import file containing only these columns:
- AssocCode
- Account
- Zip (with the corrected values)
- Run the import in Update Import Mode.
Important: Only include columns of information you want to update. Any blank columns in your import file will erase existing data in those fields on owner accounts.
This method works for any contact information field that needs bulk correction, just ensure your import file contains only the columns of contact information requiring updates. For more information on this import, review our Property and Homeowner Import article.
Q: Is there a report I can run for homeowner contact information for a given association?
A: Yes. The Homeowner Contact Information report, found in the Reports menu, exports homeowner contact details for a selected association to an Excel file. The report organizes information across three tabs, Address, Email, and Phone, at the bottom of the file.
