  • Advisors review data online instead of copy-pasting from email

Questions, answered

Will it run a valuation automatically after entering the data?

No. WebRun enters the figures and saves them, then alerts the advisor to review. The valuation run is not triggered until the advisor confirms the data is correct.

What if the email contains figures for multiple years?

WebRun reads the year labels in the email and maps each figure to the correct fiscal year field in BizEquity, logging each year's entries separately.

How does it match an email to the right client engagement?

It matches on the sender's email address and the client name in the subject line. If no match is found, it flags the email in Slack for the advisor to route manually.
