Integration and Screen Details - Buildium

Synopsis

  1. Buildium syncs portfolio and contacts to Property Meld
  2. Maintenance happens in Property Meld
  3. Property Meld syncs bills to Buildium
  4. Accounting happens in Buildium

NOTE: 

For each object, we must keep one source of truth, Buildium or Property Meld. So even though the integration is "two way", for any given object it's only one way.

For example, updating a property in Meld does not update it in Buildium, and updating an invoice in Buildium does not update it in Meld.
