New smart features of CommonFloor Groups App

CommonFloor, a Quikr company that allows home aspirant, sellers and real estate professionals a comprehensive online real estate environment, coming up with new Smart Community Feature updates. These new and unique community features on the CommonFloor Groups app will provide residential communities with improved security features to manage visitor information and improve residents’ safety in society.

The new improved version is based on the recently conducted consumer survey on CommonFloor Groups. It revealed some of the essential subjects related to child safety, need for better documentation processes and a more accessible device to track vendors and visitors that go beyond old-fashioned tracking. This new and improved feature helps build smarter communities across the country.

The strong, cloud-based security system converts security guards into Smart Guards who can connect, communicate and cooperate with residents and apartment communities in a convenient manner.

Old Features:

It is an easy way to manage visitor entry as all the information is recorded digitally.

It allows residents to approve visitors’ entry with OTP (one-time-password), without dependency on an intercom.

It also allows residents to pre-approve hassle-free entry for their guests to avoid any waiting time involved in manually registering their names at the front gate.

It gives real-time notifications on the attendance details of domestic help and other staff members, the arrival of the school bus and daily vendors, among others.

We are happy to announce the revamp of CF Groups App. The New App has cleaner and richer UI, easy navigation flows for Guest/Vendor/Staff Check-ins and Industry-first features when it comes to Apartment security.

Following new changes are made under the Resident App

1. Cleaner and Rich UI

4. Staff Attendance tracking

5. Issue Gate Pass to staff and vendors

3. Guard to Resident messages

4. Guard can view gate pass issued

5. Move-in / Move-out  check-in ( for Movers & Packers)

f. Move-in / Move-out Check-in

If the Resident is moving-in or moving-out of the community, the Admin can issue a Move-in / Move-our code to Residents which can be given to Movers & Packers basis which they can enter into the community. This feature is not available in any other visitor management applications. The Admin issues the code when NOC is obtained by the resident.

g. Water Tanker / Oil Tanker Check-in

For the Water Tanker and Diesel Tanker which enters the community, the Guard can check-in them along with the capacity of the tank. This helps the Admins / Property Manager keep a tab of the amount of Water / Diesel entering into the society and track it efficiently. Again, this feature is not available in other visitor management applications.

Auto Reconciliation of PayU Money Payment Gateway Transactions

Auto Reconciliation of PayU Money Payment Gateway Transactions

Commonfloor Groups team has released the new feature on the Accounting Module “Money Manager” Auto Reconciliation of PayU money Payment Gateway payments. This feature saves a lot of time of the Treasurer and or the Admin of the Apartment Association or Society Management Committee considerably.

The Challenge of Reconciliation:

Whenever a Resident is making payment online using the PayU Money payment gateway the Receipt is generated automatically and is mailed to the Resident, simultaneously the Receipt and the Amount gets reflected on the House Statement and the Default Bank Account of the Association or Society. Earlier such payment(s) reflecting on the default bank account of the Association was to be reconciled by the Treasurer or the Admin of the Apartment Association or Society manually as the PayU Money payment gateway make settlement or credit the Amounts into the Bank account of the Association or Society in bulk. The admins had to reconcile the bulk payments along with the Transaction report of PayU Money manually and were facing difficulty in finding the breakup of the Amount as well as the Flats or Houses which made such payments for a particular credit of bulk settlement of transaction amount. The manual reconciliation was time-consuming and was difficult to reconcile each of the PayU Money transactions on a daily or weekly or monthly basis.

How does it work?

As PayU Money payment gateway is integrated with the Commonfloor Groups Software the Product team of Commonfloor has enhanced the integration to fetch the Settlement data from PayU Money by an advanced automation process. Now the Commonfloor Portal can provide the Receipt No, Settlement date correctly along with the Amount for each of the Transactions and with the UTR No. for easy reconciliation and to get the breakup of the Amount plus the Flat or House No.

Secondly, such Transactions for which settlements are made are automatically get reconciled on the Bank Statement of the Association or Society’s portal of Commonfloor groups and a Green Colour Tick mark appears against such auto reconciled Transactions. Thus saving a lot of Time and Effort of the Treasurer and or the Management Committee member who voluntarily work for the common cause of the community.
