StrataMax (Menu)

The instructions in this article relate to StrataMax (icon). The icon may be located on your StrataMax Desktop or found using the StrataMax Search.

This screen manages the building uploads to the StrataMax servers, including DocMax documents to be uploaded to the StrataMax Portal. A StrataMax intro/welcome letter can also be produced from this menu. For those who do use the StrataMax Online Portal, Lot Owners Roll Submissions are also approved and accepted here. 





StrataMax Building Uploads (Upload to Internet)

This button manually uploads building information and documents to the StrataMax servers, including information for Meeting Hub. Updates to the Roll, Office Bearers, and Building Information will trigger an upload automatically, whilst changes to levies in Levy Management will not trigger an upload automatically.

  1. Search or select StrataMax (blue cloud icon).
  2. Tag the required building/s.


  3. Click the Upload to Internet button.

Include DocMax Docs:
In StrataMax each building has space for documents which may be viewed by owners and other authorised people. These may be automatically included in the update if the box is checked. 

In StrataMax when a building status is changed to ‘Lost' or 'Inactive’ there is no longer a requirement to notify MaxSoft Admin to stop charging for the building as this information will be uploaded automatically.

Managing Online Roll Submissions

Roll Submissions are a change of details that have been submitted by an owner through the StrataMax Portal via the My Info > My Details screen. For lots where there is a single contact on the Roll, any Portal account with access to the lot can perform a change of details. For lots that have multiple contact cards, the contact card with the matching email address will be able to submit a change of details. Owners have the option via the StrataMax Portal to;

  1. Search or select StrataMax.
  2. Select Submissions.

  1. Click the appropriate selection to the prompt 'There have been changes of Ownership. Do you want to send introduction letters now?' (Usually No if sent as part of a welcome pack or internal process).
  2. Refer to our Roll Submissions article for further details on how to review and accept Roll Submissions.

Searching for a specific StrataPay Reference Number or StrataMax ID

The StrataMax ID that owners use to log into the StrataMax Portal is the same as their StrataPay reference number, without the last digit. If a lot owner knows their StrataPay Reference number, then just tell them this. Or if they don't know their StrataPay reference number or StrataMax ID, you can either find by using the below steps, or by looking it up in the Roll.

  1. Search or select StrataMax.
  2. Select file Goto > User ID's & Logs.

  1. When prompted 'Do you want to select for one building only?' - Select No to access the StrataPay Reference Numbers globally.
  2. Select ID/Lot Lookup - Assigned ID's.

  1. Click on the StrataMax ID field header to sort the ID's in order. Start typing the StrataPay ID in this column to find the required ID. This will define what Building Number and Account Number the Lot Owner belongs to.
  2. Close window when completed.
