# How to assign a monthly service or discount in Plexflow

## How to add a service to a unit in Plexflow

You can add a service **during a lease**, for example a **storage shed**, an **extra parking spot**, or a **monthly discount**, while keeping the base rent amount.

This method also applies when an owner wants to **temporarily adjust the rent without changing the main lease**.

### Step 1 – Open the unit in question

From your dashboard, open the **property**, then click the **unit in question**.

### Step 2 – Open the “Services” tab

Once you are in the unit, select the **Services** tab in the top menu.

### Step 3 – Add a service

If **no service is assigned**, click the **“Click here”** link.
A box will open with two separate lines:

- **Type**: the type of service to assign (e.g. parking, storage shed, etc.)
- **Asset**: items already set up in the system (e.g. parking 01, shed A, etc.)

In this article, we focus on the **Type** line.

### Step 4 – Create a new service type

In the **Type** line, click **New**.

### Step 8 – Complete the information

Fill in the requested fields (amount, frequency, dates, etc.).
**Note:** if it is a discount, you must enter a **minus sign (-)** before the amount.
Example: `-$50`.

### Step 9 – Click “Assign”

Once all the information is filled in, click **Assign**.
The service will then be added to the unit.

### Final result

The unit will now display:

- The **base rent**
- The **added service(s)** (positive or negative)

All **future collections will be adjusted automatically** according to the new amounts.
