2 of 10: Customise Your Documentation with Ease

Brand your documents and set up templates for your firm

Ready to tailor your documents?

In this section, we want you to get comfortable with our handy document templates and be able to customise these to your practice’s preference. Think of a document as anything from a Professional Clearance Letter, Letter of Engagement or Schedule of Services.

You can use your existing documentation if you prefer, create brand new with your own wording, tone of voice to help manage your client bank or edit our existing templates.

What placeholders do

We have handy ‘placeholders’ available throughout the system that act as mail merges for including in your documentation.

Example: using the placeholder [TaxRef:CompanyUTR] will pull through the Corporation Tax UTR that you’ve added to that specific client. For an individual’s UTR, use [TaxRef:PersonalUTR].
