Introduction

When you enter the Property Management system (raghdan.sa/en/amlak/), you'll find a sidebar containing 9 main sections. This guide explains each section in detail and how to benefit from it in managing your properties.

1. Dashboard

The dashboard is the main page you see when entering the Property Management system. It gives you a comprehensive and quick overview of everything:

Key Statistics (4 cards):

  • Total Properties — Number of properties registered in the system
  • Total Units — Number of units with breakdown (rented / vacant)
  • Tenants — Number of registered tenants
  • Occupancy Rate — Percentage of rented units from total (with progress bar)

Quick Shortcuts (4 cards):

  • Payments — Number of pending payments
  • Maintenance — Number of open maintenance requests
  • Contracts — Number of active contracts
  • Reports — Quick link to reports

2. Properties

The Properties section allows you to manage all your registered properties.

Adding a New Property (3 steps):

  • Step 1: Locate the property on the interactive Google Maps — tap on the exact location or use search
  • Step 2: Enter property details — property name, type (residential building, villa, commercial complex, office building, rest house), address, city, district, number of floors, description
  • Step 3: Upload property photos (optional)

Automatic Unit Generation:

When adding a property, you can specify the number of floors and units per floor — the system automatically generates all units with sequential numbers. For example: 5 floors × 4 units = 20 units ready instantly.

View Options:

  • Grid — Cards with property photos
  • List — Detailed table

For each property: name, type, location, number of units, rented and vacant count, with buttons (edit, delete, view details).

Each unit's data:
