Addresses

Basic data

By default, the following categories appear on the Basic Data tab:

Most of the information is self-explanatory. However, some points need to be considered in more detail.

If mandatory fields have been specified, these are displayed in red. You cannot save the address record until all mandatory fields have been filled in. In addition, you can specify whether the change of the address status and the opening of further tabs is also blocked.

Attention: Attention, if you activate this option, this will also affect address records that have already been created but not completely filled in.

When creating addresses, you can specify the default or standard value for selection fields (single select or multiselect). This is generally done in the administration, for fields such as country or language, each user can define this individually. For this purpose please go to Tools >> Settings >> User >> User name >> Settings tab >> New entry category. There you can define defaults for creating addresses and other data records.

When creating new addresses, a single value for a multiselect field can be selected directly from the selection dropdown. If multiple values are to be selected, use the usual way via the edit pen.

Administration

Administration area of an address

Among other things, you can change the status of the address here. If you use the “extended address status”, changing the status of the address can also change the status of all search criteria . If you are not sure whether you are using the “extended address status”, please see the expert information below to see how you can check and change this if necessary.

With the status you can define different “states” for an address (see expert information) and offer them for selection in the “Status” field. This makes it easy to filter according to this status or evaluate it in the statistics module .

address_management_basic_data management status 2

If a status change of the address changes the status of the search criteria, you are asked whether the change should be carried out (OK) or not (Cancel).

  • “Extended address status”, is given if “Status2” is active in the addresses instead of “Status”. You can check this under Tools >> Settings >> Administration >> TAB Input Fields >> MODULE Addresses >> CATEGORY Management.
  • In administration, you can define for the individual statuses of the address data records whether a change also affects the status of the search criteria. All of them are always deactivated / activated, not the last state is restored.
  • Status2 contains the entries “Archived and Active” and these correspond to the respective basic status of the “simple address status”. You can also define additional statuses and assign them to one of the two basic statuses.

In the category “Administration” you can determine the person in charge of the address.

The contact types can be extended as desired in the administration . Please note that two types of contacts are assigned functions. If an address data record is linked to an property as a contact person, it must be set to contact type “broker”. Then the address of the contact person is also transmitted to the portals.

In order to release the contact person of a property for the broker business directory of Immobilienscout 24, the contact type “IS24 business directory contact” is also required.

Interested parties must also be identified in some form as “interested parties” (or “interested party A”, “prospective buyer”).

The field “Customer since” is filled with the current date when the contact type “Customer” is added. The date is also set when a contact type is added that is a child element of “Customer”. This date can also be edited by you later.

You can also extend the “Origin Contact” entries as you wish. However, there are origins assigned by the system. For example, a prospective customer who has inquired via the ImmoScout24 website will automatically enter “System_Immobilienscout24” as the origin.

Under “Tipster” you can link another address data record.

Records marked as “private” cannot be viewed by any other user. Only use this option for addresses that are definitely only allowed to be seen by you personally.

Warning notice

In the “Administration” category, the “Warning” field allows you to mark important information about your respective contacts with an orange warning bar. This warning is also issued when writing emails in the To field and to separate recipients. When writing to separate receivers, a warning triangle appears next to the receiver symbol.

Additional supervisor

You can easily give further users access to the address record via the additional supervisor, several users can be entered. The category must be activated in the administration.

Hint:

Please note: Additional supervisor is only available if you use the record rights system .

Additional caregiver to an address

What rights does the additional supervisor get?

The rights are evaluated in the same way as for the supervisor. There are 3 special features:

  • The rights over the supervisor have priority. If, for example, the supervisor explicitly prevents reading, but the additional supervisor grants a reading right, the right granted through the supervisor applies. So in this case no read access.
  • Conversely, if reading rights are granted to one user and prevented by another, then this is summarized as “reading allowed”.
  • The address record also counts as “own record” for the additional supervisor, so that e.g. the user right “Activities of the own records are visible” applies.

Regardless of this, the general rule applies that rights assigned to a data set overwrite the general user rights by maintainers or additional maintainers.

Who can assign/change the additional supervisor?

All users who have write access to the address record can add or remove additional maintainers.
