Additional Reviews

Your firm can choose from three New Account workflow templates (Small, Standard, and Large).

Your Docupace team will review the options during implementation."

There are several Service Associates and Financial Professionals pre-configured.

The Service Associate and the Financial Professional will not always have a one-to-one relationship. Several FPs could share one SA, or conversely, several Service Associates could share one Financial Professional.

However, Schwab has its own DocuSign account and a different eSign process. After receiving the signatures, the system sends the Schwab documents to Advisors Own.
