How to Use
Complete guide to using Renterday from setup to all features
Getting Started
Sign up, log in, and create or join a workspace
Sign up or log in with email or Google
If you have an invite, accept it to join an existing workspace
If no invites, a new workspace will be created automatically
Rooms
Add rooms, select type, set rent, and manage status
Go to Rooms menu and click Add Room
Select property type (apartment, condo, house, etc.) and enter room number
Enter monthly rent and room details (bedrooms, bathrooms)
Set room status: Available / Occupied / Maintenance
Tenants
Add tenants and store contact information
Go to Tenants menu and click Add Tenant
Enter name, email, phone, and other contact details
Leases
Create leases linking rooms to tenants, set recurring items and due date
Go to Leases, click Create Lease, select room and tenant
Add recurring items: rent, water, electricity, common fees, etc.
Set rent due day (e.g., 5th of each month)
Choose payment mode: Auto (system creates monthly) or Manual
Copy Portal link from lease page and send to tenant to view info, upload payment slips, and report maintenance
Payments
Auto-generated payment records, mark as paid, upload receipts
Payment records are auto-created from leases (or manually if in manual mode)
When tenant pays, click Mark as Paid to record
Upload receipt or slip for proof
View status: Pending / Paid / Overdue
Meter Reading
Record meter readings and auto-calculate utility charges
Go to Meter Reading, pick the month, and enter each room's electricity and water reading — usage and cost are calculated live
Press Confirm & Generate Bills to issue the bills; once issued, that month's reading is locked to prevent accidental edits
Need to fix an old reading? Press Correct on the locked row — you'll see an impact preview before saving
Unpaid bills update automatically; for bills already paid, a separate correction bill is created for just the difference — the paid bill never changes
