Community Development is a robust addition to your software ecosystem with a dynamic workflow view that guides you through each step of permitting, planning and zoning, inspections and code violations, and approvals.

The application empowers your organization to record and track every detail and transaction for all projects and properties, and for a cohesive experience, Community Development interfaces with General Ledger, Business License, Cash Receipting and Master Contacts.

For each project type you create, easily designate project details and process, such as fees, inspection times and forms, and approval requirements.
