reports before it is submitted. From the
confirmation screen, the valuation details can
also be printed. |
|
|
For property and
market risk ratings, a value of zero can now be
selected to indicate an unknown or
non-applicable rating. |
|
|
|
|
Ordering full
valuations from completed RAs |
|
|
A full valuation
can be ordered from any Completed or
Finalised Restricted Access valuation.
Selecting to 'Order Full' generates a new full
valuation with the previous RA's details.
Standardised fees can still be applied for these
valuations. |
|
|
A new type of
standard fee, 'RA to Full' has been included to
cater for this new feature. |
|
|
Valuations
ordered from an RA are linked to the previous
valuation. Selecting to 'View RA' brings up the
view screens of the original Restricted Access
valuation. |
|
|
|
|
Cancellation
fees introduced |
|
|
Upon requesting
a cancellation of a valuation, the lender is
prompted to specify a cancellation fee ranging
from zero to the full fee amount. This brings
the valuation into Awaiting Cancellation
status. The valuer receives a task to 'Confirm
Cancellation'. After reviewing the cancellation
details, the valuer can either request a fee
change to negotiate a new cancellation fee, or
confirm the cancellation which brings the
valuation into Cancelled status. |
|
|
|
|
Other |
|
|
A 'Valuers
Report' button is now included in the action
column for any valuations with an attached
report. This provides direct viewing access to
the valuers report. |
|
New notification features |
|
|
When a note is added, a 'To Review' task appears on
both the lenders' and valuers' task list. |
|
|
When a lender approves or rejects a fee change or
delay request, a 'To Review' task appears on the
valuers' task list. |
|
|
When a note is added by a lender, an email
notification is sent to the appropriate valuer (this
behaves similarly to existing email notifications) |
|
|
|
|
Presentation
upgrades |
|
|
In all view
pages and the Valuation Summary screen, the
placement of the Property and Market Risk
Ratings have been reordered to be consistent
with existing conventions. |
|
|
All task descriptions have been renamed (e.g. "To
Accept" is now "Accept"). |
|
|
The notes and history screens now reference the
valuation property address in the header. |
|
|
|
|
Other |
|
|
A new lender
user function, 'Cancel a completed valuation'
has been added. If granted, it allows a lender
to cancel a valuation even if it has already
been inspected or completed. This caters for
exceptional cases where a valuer completes a
valuation in error, requiring the lending
institution to dismiss it. |
|
|
In order to complete a valuation, a valuer's market
authorisation limit must not be less than both the
'Customer Estimate' (set upon request) and 'Estimated
Market Value' (upon completion) of the valuation. |
|
|
A 'Subject'
field has been added for notes. |
