General Tab Tasks Take Unit Offline
This task is used to take a vacant unit off-line. There can be many reasons a unit should be taken off-line. Refer to the chart below for the reasons available in Property Manager.
If the unit is temporarily off-line you will be able to schedule a tenant to move into it, using the Schedule Move-In/Transfer task on the Household Detail > General Tab. Scheduling the Move-In will place the unit on-line again.
The unit must be vacant and there must not be a tenant scheduled to move in.

May at any time be placed back on-line

Additional Information regarding Permanently Offline Units
The Demolition Disposition Date in the Maintenance Information section of the tab will be populated with the date entered in the first step of this task, if the unit is taken off-line permanently.
Units that are permanently off-line will not be counted in a Funding Program Group, while temporarily off-line units can be counted.
Units that are permanently off-line will not appear in the Unit drop-down list of the Unit context bar for the selected community.
