ALLi - Violation Creation and Management

ALLi helps you create, update, and manage violations using simple instructions, while keeping everything structured and aligned with your community’s enforcement rules.

Instead of navigating multiple screens, you can describe the violation in plain language and ALLi will translate it into a properly structured record.


Quick Takeaway: Tell ALLi what happened, where it happened, and what rule applies. ALLi handles the structure, validation, and creation of the violation.

What ALLi Can Do

ALLi supports the full lifecycle of violation management.

Built for real workflows: ALLi does not just log violations—it helps keep enforcement organized, consistent, and tied to your community rules.


Information Needed to Create a Violation

To create a violation, ALLi must identify the property, the rule being violated, and the inspector responsible.

Core information includes:

Optional but recommended:


How ALLi Creates a Violation

ALLi follows a structured process behind the scenes to ensure the violation is created correctly.

Step 1: Locate the property using address, unit, or homeowner
Step 2: Identify the correct community configuration
Step 3: Retrieve available violation categories and rules
Step 4: Confirm the assigned inspector
Step 5: Create the violation tied to the correct rule and property

This ensures all violations align with the community’s configured enforcement rules and reporting structure.


Example Instructions

You can create violations using simple, natural language. ALLi will translate your request into the correct structure.

Create a violation for 28025 Riverbridge Dr. Category: Trash Cans. Issue: Trash cans left out past garbage day. Inspector: Mary Guck. Add a follow-up in 10 days.

Log a violation for [address]. Category: Parking. Issue: Unauthorized vehicle parked overnight. Assign to [Inspector Name].


What Happens After Creation

Once a violation is created, it becomes part of your community’s enforcement record and appears in the violation detail view.

The violation record includes structured information and supports ongoing actions such as notices, fines, and status updates.
