Department Settings – Web Settings


This area allows you to define how the Properties will be displayed on the web and which web sites the property information will be sent to for the Department displayed.

The screen is split into two areas – the upper List of Records area displays current Departments, whilst the lower area is the Selected Record Display.

A Departments Active Window will appear.

5.      
Select the Web Settings tab.

The property will be marked as sold based on whichever date is met first.

8.       or Select the Not Applicable Option Button if you do not wish to use this definition.

Note:
This definition is used to show the listing as being ‘Under Contract’ before being displayed as ‘Sold’ i.e. the user can select the Settled option for the Definition of ‘Sold’ on web and the Offer Signed option for the Definition of ‘Under Contract’ on web – this means that the listing will have the ‘Under contract’ label/status when the Contract is entered and will have the ‘Sold’ label/status when the contract is Settled. If the user selects the same option for both definitions the ‘Sold’ option will be the one used.

In the Number of days listing remains on web area:
9.       Enter the number of days the property will remain on the web after the property is Sold (as defined in Step 1 - 3 above). Depending on the Option Button selected, the number of days will use the relevant option date or if this date is empty the Settlement date will be used.
10.     Enter the number of days the property will remain on the web after the property is withdrawn from sale.

Note:
The system will look at the Department > Sales Settings > Contract Settings > Date to be used for Exchanged/Unconditional Option Button to determine which of these dates will be used if one of the Exchanged/Unconditional options are selected.
