Option 1: Multiple Contacts on One Property

This approach keeps everything on one property while controlling who receives what.
What you can control:
Invoices
Reports
Defect Quotes
Notifications

Scheduling multiple appointments on one task for each tenancy
When you need to visit multiple tenancies for one task, create separate appointments with unique Summary. Drag the task onto the calendar multiple times, each time provide the tenancy name (e.g., "Shop 1") in the summary field.
Option 2: Parent/Child Properties
Use this when: Each tenancy needs separate reports or defect quotes.
Parent/Child properties let you organize multiple tenancies under one main property while keeping documentation separate for each unit.
How it works:
Each tenancy becomes a "child" property
The main building is the "parent" property
Child properties stack neatly under the parent
Each child can have its own reports, quotes, and invoices
