Password, Username and Account MaintenanceHow do I update my profile and photo?Click on the 'Admin' link in the top right-hand corner of the page, then click either 'Personal Details' or 'Work Details' from the 'My Profile' menu on the left hand side of the page. You can upload a photo and update your reporting template from the 'Work Details' section. How do I change my password? Click on the 'Admin' link in the top right-hand corner of the page, then select 'Change Password' from the 'My Profile' menu on the left hand side of the page. You will then be prompted to enter your existing password once and your new password twice. To remain secure, we recommend you choose a password that is a combination of upper case, lower case, letters and numbers. For example: "Trustrpdat4" How do I add extra users to my account? Click on the 'Admin' link in the top right-hand corner of the page, then select 'Manage Users' from the 'Account Details' menu on the left hand side of the Administration page. This page displays the current users connected to your account. Click the 'Add A New User' link at the top of the list to connect extra users to your subscription. If the person you are trying to connect already has an RP Data Personalised login, then enter their login name into the 'Existing User' box. If the person you are trying to connect is not an existing user, then enter their email address in the 'Existing or New User' box and they'll be sent an email invitation to connect to your subscription account. Please note that the Principal / Administrator is advised by email that this action has taken place. Can I bulk add extra users to my account? Yes you can. Click on the 'Admin' link in the top right-hand corner of the page, then select 'Manage Users' from the 'Account Details' menu on the left hand side of the Administration page. This page displays the current users connected to your account. Click the 'Add A New User' link at the top of the list to connect extra users to your subscription. Enter each user's email address into the 'Existing or New User' box separated by a comma then click the 'Add' button. Each user in the list will receive an email invitation to connect to your subscription account. Please note that the Principal / Administrator is advised by email that this action has taken place. How can I disconnect the user from my account? To disconnect a user, click on the 'Admin' link in the top right-hand corner of the page, then select 'Manage Users' from the 'Account Details' menu on the left hand side of the Administration page. The current users connected to your account are displayed in a table. Locate your user in the list and click the 'Remove' link. The user has been instantly removed from your account. (Please note that clicking 'Remove' will disconnect the user without additional warnings). Please note that the Principal / Administrator is advised by email that this action has taken place. Is there a limit to how many users we can have in our office? Please encourage each staff member in your office who is going to access your RP Data subscription to create their own username. There are no limits. They are absolutely free of charge. Common sense will prevail as only a limited number of users will be able to connect to the sessions you have purchased. If you need to purchase more sessions so that more users can be online at the same time, then please contact your friendly RP Data sales representative on 1300 734 318 for more information. Does adding extra users to my account cost anything? No. Usernames are free of charge. Please encourage each staff member in your office who is going to access your RP Data subscription to create their own username. There are no limits. They are absolutely free of charge. How many people can we have logged into the RP Professional at once? You will have purchased a number of concurrent sessions with your subscription. These sessions represent the number of users who can be connected to RP Professional at the same time. If you have purchased 3 sessions and 4 users are trying to connect at the same time, the fourth user will be advised to wait as the three sessions are presently in use. What happens if I move offices? Usernames follow the user. You can take your username and password with you no matter where you work. Should you change employers, your old employer can disconnect you from their account and your new employer can re-connect you to their account. (Absolutely no data follows the user). I don't want ex employees taking data with them. Can you stop this? If a user is disconnected from an account (for example if an employee leaves or is fired) then only the username and password follows that user. The data the user had access to does not follow them. All data belongs to the Principal who is paying for the subscription. I have received an email invitation, but I can't create the username I want. There may already be another "bill.smith" account or you may have created a username in the past and then forgotten about it. If you're unsure you can contact Customer Service Team on 1300 734 318. It won't accept my personal email address. When creating a personalised login you are asked to enter in both your personal and work email addresses. Your personal email address should be unique because that's where any password changes you make will be sent. Your work email address can be a shared email if required e.g. This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it . You cannot enter the same email address for work and personal. They must be two different email addresses. (It wouldn't be secure if we sent your password change request to a shared email account). I don't have a personal email address. You will need one. Free email addresses can be created at www.hotmail.com (Microsoft), www.gmail.com (Google) or www.yahoo.com (Yahoo). GeneralWhat happened to the old property system?RP Data has invested heavily to bring you an easier, faster, smarter property system called RP Professional. The 'RP Classic' property system is still there and accessible for you to use. In the coming months we will retire it as functionality is built up in our new RP Professional system. We encourage you to spend some time in RP Professional because we're sure you'll find it easier to use, faster to find properties and a smarter way to create property research and reports. How is On The Market Different in RP Professional? We've split On The Market into two separate views. Now when you perform a multi property search, you'll see two extra tabs on your results page if you are subscribed to the "On The Market" product.
Property Monitor is not available just yet in this first release of RP Professional. We're busy building it now. In the meantime, please continue to use Property Monitor alerts by accessing this functionality from the 'RP Classic' property system. SearchHow do I search for properties?At the top of the page you'll see our new 'Quick Search' bar. Quick search lets you enter four different types of search. As you type, the predictive address options will change to direct you to the appropriate property record/s. Below are some example quick searches to get you started:

How do I perform a "Finance" search like I used to?We've now made it easy to perform finance searches that show likely mortgage qualification products. Just perform a multi property search then select the 'Finance' results tab. Use the 'Financing Cycle' drop down box on the Refine Search menu to display properties which we predict would suit specific mortgage products.
Property TasksWhat is My CMAs?Every time you run a CMA, the property photo and address will be added to your My CMAs panel on the Dashboard. This helps you track the CMAs that you are working on. When you win the listing, hover your mouse over the photo then click the 'List' icon to move the property to your 'My Listings' panel. What is My Listings? The 'My Listings' panel is a convenient way to track the properties you currently have listed for sale. You may also choose to build a Property List Report highlighting specific stock to potential buyers. What is My Recent Sales? Clicking the 'Sold' icon on any property record is a simple way to add your properties to your 'My Recent Sales' panel. It's like your personal scorecard of the sales you have made in your local area. What is My Rentals? Clicking the 'Rent' icon on any property record is a simple way to track the rental properties you have under management. Each property will be added to the 'My Rentals' panel. It's a simple way to track properties your rent roll. What is My Watchlist? When you add any property to your watch list, we'll alert you if it's ever listed, sold or advertised for rent. You can watch as many properties as you like. What is My Titles? Customers in Queensland, New South Wales and Victoria can purchase a property title record from within RP Professional. For convenience, we place your purchased title documents in your 'My Titles' Panel. Please note that legally we are only allowed to hold your title record post your purchase for three days. Your purchased title will disappear from RP Professional once the three days expires. We highly recommend you save any purchased title document to your local hard drive so that you have a permanent copy of the document your purchased. |
