Reviewing your pricing
Reading the valuation table once a submission is Ready, and what to do if a number looks wrong.
Last updated
When a submission reaches Ready, the valuation is complete and waiting on you. You will get a notification, and it will appear under Pending Pricing Acceptance on your dashboard.
Opening the valuation
- Find the submission in the submissions table, or click through from the dashboard.
- Double-click the row, or choose View from the action menu (⋮).
- Scroll to the valuation table.
Reading the numbers
Each asset line carries three figures:
| Figure | What it is |
|---|---|
| Barkr Valuation Price | What Barkr says the asset is worth. This is the number the warranty stands behind. |
| Barkr Max Payout | The ceiling on what Barkr would pay out for that asset under the warranty. |
| Barkr Fee | What the warranty costs for that asset. |
The distinction that matters: the Valuation Price is a view on worth, and the Max Payout is the exposure Barkr is taking on it. They are not always the same number, and the gap is part of what you are assessing.
If a number looks wrong
Use Contact Us above the valuation table. It goes to the team that priced the submission, with the VSA number attached.
It is worth doing. New information can move pricing in either direction, and the final figures go into the contract — so a correction made now is a correction made before anything is committed. If you hold a specification, a service record or a comparable sale that Barkr did not have, that is exactly the sort of thing to send.
Exporting
The valuation table can be exported for circulation or for your credit file. Use the export control on the table itself.
The two-week window
Pricing stays actionable for two weeks. After that the submission is marked Inactive and the valuation lapses — markets move, and a stale price is not one Barkr will warranty.
Nothing is lost when that happens. Request a re-run and the same assets are priced again against current data, keeping the same VSA number. See Requesting a re-run.
What happens next
If the pricing works, accept it. That is where you choose the contract term and the payment plan, and it is covered in Accepting pricing and requesting a contract.
If it does not, you can simply let it lapse. There is no obligation attached to a valuation and no charge for one that does not become a contract.
