Instructions on how to set up PMSync for Rentvine users

Note: PMSync is fully retiring on December 31, 2024. After that date you will no longer be able to merge your PMSync data with the directly integrated data coming from your PAS. Please migrate to the Rentvine Direct API integration by that date.

LeadSimple can now sync your Owners, Tenants, Vendors, Properties, and Units from Rentvine, and keep them up to date automatically. Here's how to set that up.

Step 1: Add new pipelines for your Owners, Tenants, and Vendors.

This step is crucial. You will need separate pipelines for your current owners, tenants, and vendors. You DO NOT want to mix your current owners and tenants with your owner leads and prospective tenants (if you track prospective tenants in LeadSimple), as this will skew your reports and create duplicates.

To add the pipelines you need, click "New Pipeline" under Leads in the lefthand sidebar in LeadSimple. (Note that pipelines are unlimited on the Operations plan.)

Give your pipeline a name (such as PMSync Owners or Rentvine Owners) and save it.

Repeat Step 1 until you have added a new pipeline for "PMSync Owners", "PMSync Tenants", and "PMSync Vendors", before moving to the next step.
​


Step 2: Finish setting up the integration in LeadSimple.

Go to Settings > Integrations > Property Management Software.
​

Click "Enable this feature if you haven't already.

Then, click "Connect Your Property Management Software".

Next, select the new pipelines you just added for each relationship. Be sure to map your current clients to the "Signed Contract" stage and your past clients/tenants to "Past Client".

Vendors are optional and only need to be mapped to a pipeline and a single stage, typically we map to a won stage/green stage.

Save the integration and move on to step 3!

​

Note that it will say "Data not Importing - Set Up Required" until the first report comes in from Rentvine tomorrow morning.

Congratulations, you're finished!

If you've followed these instructions, the first report from Rentvine will be emailed automatically tomorrow morning, and shortly after that will be synced with your LeadSimple account. The sync will occur automatically going forward, and changes will be reflected in your account.
​
Note: We try pulling updated data every hour. That said, we depend on Rentvine actually sending us the reports. Unfortunately, at this time we don't have a way to figure out when will they send the reports to us. If you need to update the data urgently try emailing the reports manually to the integration email, this will update the data in LeadSimple within a couple of minutes.

If you have any questions related to this, please contact support@leadsimple.com, and we'll be happy to assist you.
