General Tab Tasks Rent Change - Add New
This task is used to add a new rent change at the household level. The most common use of this task is in conventional communities where there are no agency rules. In these cases many tenants may be paying different rent amounts and you want the Gross Potential to match the current tenant's rent amount, and in some cases there is no Rent Plan.
If there is a certification on the Transactions tab of the household with the same effective date as the rent change you have entered, the certification will be updated to reflect this new rent amount.
The household must be living in a unit.
If the Rent Change Parameters and Rules for the community/funding program group are set to Agency Controls Change this task will not appear.
