Initial Version

When an advisor launches the Docupace Starting Point either from the Docupace system or from a 3rd party CRM integration, a wizard opens and guides them through a step-by-step process to help determine the required form set.

Based on the advisor’s answers, the system assembles appropriate forms into a packet (Work Item) for the advisor to process. The Depending on the pre-defined workflow, the advisor can then either print the forms for a client's wet signature (and subsequent imaging into Docupace) , or process the work completely electronically (eSign).

Creating a Forms Matrix Entry

You can configure the Starting Point logic in the Forms Matrix (338) domain. A Forms Matrix entry defines the steps and options included in the Starting Point wizard. It also lists forms that will be bundled into the Work Items when the advisor goes through the Starting Point steps.
