When you create a new landlord on the system, it will automatically send them their login details via email - this email will include a link to reset a password for themselves and a link for the landlord dashboard.
It is advisable to customise the content so that it explains to the user how they can log in. The following content is a good suggestion which you are welcome to edit and use - please read the content as it will help you understand how to help your clients troubleshoot any login issues:

CRM number: Found when you search for the landlord in question in the searchbar like so: 
The Company shortname is the name of the company found after the website address
If you would like to change the template to the above or anything else, please look at this guide which explains how you can change the automatic email which goes to your landlord's inbox automatically when they are created on the system, or manually when you click actions > send login request.
Troubleshooting for your clients:
They cannot login - Step 1: Please check their login is enabled - go to the lettings tab > GDPR CRM Logins icon > type their name into the field on the top of the page > search > Untick the box for only enabled so that it shows disabled logins too. Refresh
If they are enabled already, please move to step 2 below. If they have a no under that column it means they are not enabled. Please click "enable login" in the top right
Then fill in their name and email address > enable login in the bottom right of the pop up.
Now go to their profile > actions > send login.
They cannot login part 2: - Because questions and passwords are case sensitive, it is likely that they are not entering a perfect reflection of the data they inputted when setting up their security questions and password. Go to their Profile > Actions > Clear Security Questions > then use the Send Login Request option again.
Cannot login Part 3 - They might need to clear their cached data and cookies, if they save passwords on their device, their new passwords might not be saving until they clear their old ones. If they do not know how to do this, please refer to them this link www.refreshyourcache.com
Cannot login Part 4 - If after all of the above does not work, we can test the login ourselves by changing the email address to our own and sending the login request.
