Questions, answered
Will it send beneficiary change forms to clients without approval?
No. Every DocuSign envelope is created as a draft and held for the advisor to review. Nothing is sent to the client until you explicitly approve and release it.
How does it identify which clients need a beneficiary update?
It reads advisor notes and planning gap flags inside Vanilla that indicate a life event or change has been noted, such as a marriage, divorce, birth, or death in the family.
What happens if a beneficiary update is already underway?
WebRun checks for in-progress updates on each run and skips any client where a change is already being processed, so no duplicate forms are created.
