User Roles ​

It's important to understand the different user roles within the application:

  1. Admins / Firm Owners: Responsible for setting up their firm details, including appraisers, admins, and a link to where brokers/customers can go to place appraisal orders. As orders come in, admins can assign them to their appraisers. Admins can oversee everything that is happening within their firm.
  2. Appraisers: Responsible for appraisal orders that are assigned to them by admins. Appraisers can update the order status, which will immediately notify brokers via email.
  3. Brokers: Can place appraisal orders for any appraisal firm within Top Dog Appraisal. Brokers will recieve status updates immediately via email, and can communicate with the appraiser if needed.
  4. Lenders: Can log in to view assigned orders and download the final appraisal report prepared by a firm.

More specific features for each user role will be explored throughout the documentation.
