Overview
Once Cost Capture is configured in HappyCo, resident charges captured during a move-out inspection can post automatically to the resident's ledger in RealPage — no manual re-entry required. This article covers the RealPage-side configuration needed to enable that connection.
Prerequisites
Make sure the following are in place:
- Your core RealPage integration is already set up. If not, start with Setting up your RealPage Integration →
- Cost Capture & Integrated Resident Charges is enabled and configured in HappyCo. If not, complete that setup first — see the next section
- This feature is currently in Early Access. Contact your Customer Experience Manager to have it enabled for your account
How it Works
For a full overview of the Cost Capture workflow, including cost sheets, the approval process, and how charges are captured during inspections, see Cost Capture & Integrated Resident Charges →
How to Set it Up
Step 1: Submit an Integration Request in RealPage Central
Same process as the core RealPage integration, but submit the request for HappyCo Cost Capture and Resident Charges instead of Happy Inspector.
- Log in to RealPage Central
- Click Administration
- Click RealPage Exchange
- Click App Partner Marketplace
- Find the HappyCo Cost Capture and Resident Charges integration and submit the request
Step 2: Enable the Feature in HappyCo
Contact your CXM or support@happy.co to request that Resident Chargebacks is enabled for your business.
Step 3: Set Up Cost Capture in HappyCo
Once access is confirmed, complete the Cost Capture configuration in HappyCo — including creating your cost sheets configuring your templates. See Cost Capture & Integrated Resident Charges → for instructions.
