I think I have already defined the route correctly so Please let me know any changes require.

Answer 1

It looks like either:
Your User model does not have the method prop_manager? on it. This is a method you'd have to add on your own -- active record on its own would not make a method available with a ? on it available.
From the look of the trace it's possible this is happening in a call back on the user model. Is there anything like that in your User model?
OR -
You're using cancan I noticed. It may be possible that the permissions of the user that's logged in do not include accessing that method -- though I'd think that cancan would provide a better error than simply saying the method is not available.
