    Information

    Attributes are features that can be used to filter searches for a Property, Category or Area in RMS and on the RMS IBE.

    The Attributes Filter in RMS will limit the viewed Property, Category or Area to match the combination of Attributes selected.


    Attributes can be used to put a spotlight on defining features including accessibility options, special views or other luxuries.


    Attributes must be applied to a Property, Category or Area before being available as a search filter.

    Attributes can only be assigned to the type selected in the 'Associated To' on setup.
