# Sender Details

> Jane enters the name of the company that sent the notice. If ABC Collections already exists in the portal, Jane can select it.

## Real-World Example

Jane enters the name of the company that sent the notice. If ABC Collections already exists in the portal, Jane can select it. If the sender is not known, the portal should let her provide enough sender details to continue.

## How It Should Work

* It should help consumers identify the notice sender without needing internal creditor knowledge.
* It should support selecting an existing creditor profile or entering sender details.
* It should save the sender step before moving to account details.

## How It Should Not Work

* It should not force an incorrect creditor match just because names are similar.
* It should not block the consumer from continuing when the sender is not already in the portal.
* It should not create unsafe duplicate creditor records without required details.

## Developer Notes

* Sender details can connect to Company and CreditorProfile records.
* Matching must be helpful but not overly aggressive.
