Record Event Cascading Menu - Product Advisory

November 2021

With this release, a new menu structure exists for recording lease lifecycle events after inception. These events are commonly called ‘Day 2’ events as they occur after the first day of lease entry. The new feature is a cascading menu located in the Left NavBar. Our hope is that this makes it easier for our customers to navigate to the correct workspaces within LeaseAccelerator.

Overview

The new Record Event menu is located on the left navigation bar and replaces Record Asset Event and Modify Deal, and is only visible when you are in the context of a deal. The specific elements are either active or inactive depending on the deal’s status. This new menu feature gives you access to the Record Asset Event, Modification, Payment Adjustment, and Asset Management workspaces, and uses everyday language to aid in directing you to the correct workspace based on your selection.

Note: Recording an event, whether it be a Renewal, Modification, or Payment Change, to name a few, has never been easier.

Menu Tips

  • You do not need to click to expand each submenu. When hovering over the menu, text will expand when you see the right-arrow. Text will be highlighted with a light blue box.

  • Once you are ready to make a selection click on the text.

  • Menu options will stay expanded once hovered over. If you wish to collapse the menu, simply click in any empty space outside of the boxes to clear it.

  • You can go back to any of the other submenus if the menu is left open.

  • The ‘Non-Contractual Extension’ option has a SmartTip that appears when you hover over it to help guide your decision for this choice.

    • If you click the selection or move the mouse to another selection the Tip goes away.

  • If an option is grayed out, then it cannot be accessed. Your mouse pointer will change to a hand if the option is clickable.

    • Reasons you will see grayed out options:

      1. Deal status is All Assets Disposed, Terminated, or Defunct (Rolled back).

      2. Deal status is Incomplete or Pending Approval.

      3. You do not have permission to view the option, and in some cases, you will not see the option at all.
