Security and Billing
Re-Leased Security with Microsoft Azure
Re-Leased Property Management Software leverages the Microsoft Azure cloud platform. Our servers are hosted in global Azure Data Centres and geo-replicated to multiple international locations at any given time to maintain Fault-Tolerance & Redundancy. The Azure service replicates multiple redundant copies of our data to multiple physical servers in real-time to maintain data availability and business continuity. In the case of a hardware failure, Windows Azure provides automatic failover to optimise availability.
Malicious or accidental removal of data is mitigated by the fact that the software and data are not stored on any local hardware or exposed in a manner, which a client could directly access or manipulate them.
From a security perspective. The Azure platform is designed to provide “Defence in Depth,” reducing the risk that failure of any one security mechanism will compromise the security of the entire environment. The Defence in Depth layers include Filtering Routers, Firewalls, Cryptographic Protection of Messages, Software Security Patch Management, Monitoring, and Network Segmentation.
A full technical overview of the Azure hosting platform security features can be found at Microsoft Azure Security Overview.
Maximum Tenancies Reached: Contact Billing Group Manager
Your Re-Leased subscription is based on the number of active tenancies in your billing group.
If this message displays when adding a new tenancy, you have exceeded the number of active tenancies in your current subscription.
To resolve this message:
2. Edit the Tenancies You Manage
Your subscription is based on Active Tenancies. An active tenancy is any tenancy with a status of:
- Current
- Future
- Expired
To view the number of current tenancies:
1. Click Tenancies
The tenancy list displays all tenancies with the appropriate status:
The sum of the Current, Future and Expired tenancies is the number of active tenancies you manage.
Handy Hints
- View the Expired tenancies. Action any tenancies which can be cancelled, vacated or archived
- A cancelled tenancy is not an active tenancy
- You do not need to archive tenancies for them to display an inactive status, as this is based on the tenancy terms.
Working with Properties and Tenancies
Record Tenancy Insurance
An insurance policy is entered on the related property record. An insurance policy belonging to the tenant is entered in the same field as a policy belonging to the owner.
To learn more about property insurance.
There are two ways so record tenancy insurance:
- Enter Tenancy Insurance as an insurance type
- Enter the Tenancy Contact as an Insurance Broker
Enter Tenancy Insurance as an Insurance Type
Insurance types may be created to include tenancy insurance. This may be helpful to group different tenancy insurance policies. To learn more about insurance types.

1. Click Insurance
2. Click New Insurance Record

Can I move a Property to a Different Company?
No. The property needs to be set up again in the new company along with any tenancies and tasks associated.
It may be archived in the old company, or if the company it belonged to previously is being archived this is not necessary.
If you do not want to archive the old record of the property, ensure any tenancies are cancelled so that you don't end up with both companies sending out rent invoices. Also consider renaming the property and tenancies to avoid confusion with the new information.
