MoveBoardSettings › Sales & orders › In-home estimates sets the rules for an estimator's visit to the customer. How to book, move and call off a visit is in In-home and virtual estimates.
Before you start
Anyone who can open Settings can change this page. The first card is kept per move type — pick the move type at the top.
The fields
In-Home Settings (per move type)
| Field | What it does |
|---|---|
| Default hours to block per survey | How many hours a new visit holds on the estimator's schedule (00–23). |
| Allow in-home survey if move is over | The smallest move size that may have a visit. Below it, the order's Services button for a visit is greyed. |
| and/or (size box) | The same limit as a volume (cu ft, or your move unit). |
The estimator's schedule (the whole branch)
- Add travel time to the estimator's schedule — on, an in-home visit also holds the estimator for the drive from your parking address to the customer and back. The drive shows on the schedule and counts when MoveBoard checks for overlapping visits. Virtual estimates never have travel. A new company starts with it off.
Change and save
- Pick the move type and change the fields. A changed field shows a gold changed tag; press it to put that field back.
- Optional: Copy to other move types puts these values on the other move types (it asks first).
