Client portal
Use the client portal
Understand what clients see when they open a secure request link.
The client portal is the secure page clients use to complete a document request.
What clients see
- The request title and message.
- The statement period and due date when available.
- A checklist of requested items.
- Progress showing how many items are complete.
- A Need help? message button for request-specific questions.
Submit an item
- Open the secure request link.
- Find the requested item.
- Click Upload file or Replace file.
- Choose the file from your computer.
The file uploads immediately after it is selected.
Add a note
- Open the requested item.
- Click Add note.
- Enter the note.
- Click Save note.
A client can submit a file, a note, or both. If they try to submit without either, CrankHQ asks them to upload a file or add a note.
Accepted file types
The portal accepts PDF, JPG, JPEG, PNG, DOC, DOCX, XLS, XLSX, CSV, and ZIP files up to 10 MB per file.
Locked requests
When a request is completed or cancelled, the portal is locked and clients cannot upload files or add notes.
