Code-backed validations and workflow rules
- The property save flow can synchronise the inline room schedule.
- Licence and compliance statuses are operational fields and do not independently validate an external authority database.
Expected result and verification
- The create or edit an hmo property workflow completes without bypassing the module’s permission and validation checks.
- The saved value, generated file, status, notification or linked CRM record is visible from the same workspace.
- Any validation message remains visible until the source data or setting is corrected.
Security, privacy and operational checks
- Use least-privilege staff access and do not use another person’s account to reach a hidden action.
- Review personal, financial, identity and compliance data before sending, exporting or exposing it through a public link.
- Test configuration, email, public forms, accounting effects and provider connections with controlled records before production-wide use.
