Summary

Uploading the “Unit Directions” allows you to set up directions to each of your properties and send, or print these out, along with other documents through our guest letters system. Since you will use a PDF file, you can include text, images, drawings, and just about anything else you can include in a PDF file.

Navigate to: Properties > Units

Unit Directions

File Format

Unit directions must be added to each unit as a file. While many file formats are supported, we highly recommend converting your “directions” file to the PDF format. This ensures your guests are able to view them easily and enables BrightSide to print them out directly from the browser.

Upload Directions File to Unit

From the Unit tab, find and click on the “Upload Directions” button. Locate your directions file on your computer and select it. BrightSide automatically uploads it. Remember to click Save or you will lose this update.
