The Weekly Digest is a summary email of material things that happened at your condo over the past week, and what is coming up in the next one, so you can stay informed without checking Managemate every day.
For most board directors, this is the only Managemate email you need.
When you will receive it
The digest arrives every Friday at 5:00 PM (Eastern Time). It covers the previous 7 days, plus a preview of the 7 days ahead.
You receive one email per condo. If you belong to several condos, each one sends its own digest, and content is never mixed.
Your digest only includes what you have permission to view. Two people in the same condo may receive different digests.
If there is nothing to report for you that week, no email is sent.
What is inside
Activity Updates
Your condo's activities, organised into three lists.
To Do, for activities that received a status update this week and are neither overdue nor completed
Overdue, for activities due in the last 7 days that are still in To Do status. An activity due more than 7 days ago also appears here if it received a status update this week and is still in To Do status
Completed, for activities completed in the last 7 days. An activity completed more than 7 days ago also appears here if it received a status update this week
Each activity appears in one list only. Where it qualifies for more than one, the most important wins: Completed first, then Overdue.
When an activity has a status update, the latest one is shown directly beneath it, with who wrote it and when, and a preview of up to 500 characters. Select View Full Update to read the whole update in Managemate. Where there were more updates during the week, a +N more count appears next to the link.
The preview shows plain text only. Formatting and images are removed, and links stay clickable.
Other Updates
Reminders, for records that need your attention: overdue projects, and contracts that expired or renewed in the past week
Projects, for projects completed this week
Documents, for Certificates and Financial Statements added in the last 7 days, each showing its date and how many activities it is linked to
Coming Up Next Week
A view of the week ahead by day: activities starting or due, projects starting or ending, and contracts expiring or renewing. Each item carries a badge saying Starts, Due, Ends, Expires or Renews.
An item that starts on one day and finishes on another appears on both days
An item that starts and finishes on the same day appears once, with its finishing badge
Badges and labels worth knowing
NEW marks anything created within the last 7 days: an activity, a project, a document, or a status update. An older activity with a fresh update gets the badge on the update rather than on the activity
Events end, they are not due. Events show End and Ended where tasks and inspections show Due and Completed
Activities with no dates show Unscheduled. Activities with a start and an end date show their full Duration. Where a specific time of day is set, it appears alongside the date
Every item shows an icon for its type, and contracts show the vendor name
What changed in the new design
If your Friday email looks different, these are the changes.
Status updates now sit under the activity they belong to, showing who wrote the update and when. Previously they appeared in a section of their own, which meant the same work was often reported twice in one email
A NEW badge highlights activities, updates and documents created in the past 7 days, so you can see what is genuinely new rather than simply still open
A Reminders section collects items that need attention, including contracts that expired or renewed during the week
More context on each record, so you can understand an update without opening the application
