= Using My Move with Customers =

This guide is for staff. It explains when to invite a customer, what to expect them to do, and what staff still need to manage in Standout.

For the full feature reference, see [[My Move Customer Portal]].

== When to invite ==
My Move is useful for:

* applicants who want to maintain requirements and matching;
* buyers completing Buyer Ready/onboarding;
* sellers following viewings/offers/progression;
* landlords following tenancies/compliance/repairs;
* tenants reporting repairs and viewing tenancy information.

The contact needs a usable email address.

== Send the invitation ==
Open the Contact and click the prominent '''Send My Move link''' button to the left of '''More actions'''.

The customer receives a time-limited secure sign-in link.

== First login ==
On first secure-link access, the customer is encouraged to create a password. Returning customers can then sign in using email + password.

If they forget the password, the secure email link remains available as a recovery/passwordless route.

== What customers can update ==
Depending on their role/transaction, customers can maintain or submit information such as:

* property requirements;
* Buyer Ready information;
* solicitor information;
* onboarding/identity details;
* secure documents;
* viewing requests;
* repair reports;
* repair quote decisions for landlords.

Some of this updates existing Standout records directly; other submissions are presented to staff for review.

== Review customer submissions ==
Use:

'''Contact → More actions → My Move submissions'''

This view can contain onboarding, buyer position, AML information, secure uploads and viewing requests.

Do not assume information is correct simply because the customer entered it. Review important transaction/compliance data.

== Property requirements ==
My Move requirements use the same underlying Standout requirements records as the staff CRM. If a customer changes their search, staff will see the same change.

== Viewing requests ==
A My Move viewing request creates a tentative diary viewing. Staff should confirm the slot/parties before treating it as booked.

== Repairs ==
Current tenants can report repairs. Landlords can respond to recorded quotes where the repair has a quote awaiting a decision.

== Customer communication ==
My Move reduces routine chasing only if the underlying CRM is kept current. Update progression, viewing feedback, offers, tenancy/compliance and repair states promptly so the portal tells the truth.

== Security principle ==
Customers can only access records to which their authenticated contact is genuinely linked. Never try to work around portal permissions by sharing another customer's link.
