Templates & Communication
During the conference, we reviewed how to utilize custom tags, letter template model overrides, and letter templates in the variance report category. Other communication features that were addressed included information about mailing address format, like mailing name override, and how to insert images on templates and action items for emails.
Communication System Advantages:
-
Automate and streamline communications.
-
Custom letter and email templates drive association-specific messaging and branding.
-
Save management company time by saving non-value-added inputs.
Roles & Responsibilities
Roles, Responsibilities, and Portfolios are the systems that organize and protect management company data and drive efficiency at every organization level. For this topic, we reviewed how to classify portfolios by type, which are categories that allow portfolios to be sorted by portfolio requirements.
Advantages of Roles & Responsibilities:
-
Configure specific portfolios and system assignments to ensure the right people are being assigned to the right tasks.
-
Customize system permissions and securities at a granular level.
-
Have endless customization options for building portfolios and assigning associations effectively.
Action Item Configuration
The custom action item workflow ensures users are utilizing the most efficient process for completing daily tasks. We reviewed how it works as a tool for managing tasks and for tracking their progress. It also allows users to use templated communications and follow-ups that are professional and predefined.
Advantages of Action Item Configurations:
-
Customize workflows to your specific management style.
-
Build in automatic communications at every critical touchpoint.
-
Users know what to do each day instead of needing to guess. Build out the to-do list for all your users.
