'Day Before' reminder for Rent Due
At the moment it's only for the days after, once the rent is overdue, but it would be ideal to have one for before the due date as well. For example; "Rent Due Tomorrow" with the description inside as "Friendly Reminder, your rent is due tomorrow, please make sure payment is made to avoid arrears on your ledger!"

Objective: The purpose of this proposal is to implement a proactive notification system that reminds tenants about their upcoming rent payments before the due date. The aim is to ensure timely payments, foster consistent communication, and help tenants maintain a clean rent payment history.
Key Benefits:
Improved On-Time Payments:
By providing tenants with timely reminders before their rent is due, we encourage them to plan ahead, reducing the likelihood of late or missed payments.
Enhanced Tenant Experience:Tenants will appreciate the reminders, which demonstrate our commitment to their convenience. This can enhance tenant satisfaction and retention.
Reduced Delinquencies:Fewer missed payments mean less need for late fee charges and collections, creating a smoother process for both management and tenants.
Consistent Payment History:Tenants are more likely to maintain a clean payment record, which benefits them if they ever need references for future rentals or financial commitments.

Would be great to be sent as a text message, many ignore emails

I find it strange that this feature was available via REST yet the newer platform still does not have this feature available. We found it highly effective when using it with REST as it kept our arrears level in order with less time consumed in doing so.

Good idea. We could simply have negative days in the current arrears process so "-4 days" could send out a reminder to pay rent email.

Absolutely agree with this. Came here to add the suggestion and found it already here. I can't believe this is not already a standard feature. The agent I rent through uses a program that sends me a 1 day before reminder which is very helpful, an email on the day to advise rent has been debited and a receipt once cleared. This would help lower arrears and fill a very important gap.
