1. Section 8 is now divided into 3 screens to make it easier to navigate images to the 22 sections (about 7 sections per screen now)
2. The ratings in section 8 now advise, by element, a suggested defect and then prefills the cost - you can still change the costs.
3. Section 9 has been changed with all Mortgageability items removed. You no longer have to provide this data. BUT there is a new box for scaffolding to complete

Folks,
We have just put live a couple of software upgrades and changes :-
1. An address lookup facility is now availble on the New Report screen - just start typing the address in the new box.
This is getting us prepared for the UPRN (Unique Property Ref Number) which is being used across the industry now.
2. The Single Defect Report can now be changed to your own report name. So it can be 'Defect Report' , 'Johns Inspection' etc - whatever you wish
On the photos page you have access to change any of your captions - we give you over 100 but you can amend / add / delete as you wish. There's a help button on the captions page.
Valuation and / or ReInstatement or neither - You can control any combination of these two by using the radio buttons on 'edit address' from your survey list. Or when you buy the report. Section 2.7 then prints as required.
There are a few options when you buy a report - if you get them wrong you can change them using the 'edit address' button from your 'active survey' list
Windows Snip and Sketch Tool - To grab parts of the screen. Here's a short cut - Press 3 keys : Windows Key - Shift - S at the same time. Then drag your mouse to highlight your screen portion. A window will pop up for you to click on and save.
TEMPLATES
You have two survey templates - one for the Bulding Survey and one for the Home Buyer ( incl HCS and BTL) types of survey.
These are your personal templates for you to edit as you wish. We just give you some starter text.
The report text within is copied into your new report when you buy a report.
But did you know you can set your condition ratings and load up some pictures to your template - and then these get copied across too.
PHOTO LOADING
You can drag and drop up to 30 pictures at a time across to the photo load screen. Do make sure they are resized down to around 100kb (0.1MB) most camera photos are around 4MB-8MB
