In short

How can I automatically kick off onboarding when a new entity or account is added to Addepar?

WebRun checks every new entity or account in Addepar for complete data, adds the entity to the onboarding tracker in Google Sheets with a full task checklist, and drafts a kickoff email to the onboarding team in Gmail, so every new entity lands in a clean, tracked state without manual coordination.

  • Every new entity is in the onboarding tracker within minutes of creation in Addepar
  • Missing fields flagged automatically before the entity goes live
  • Onboarding team alerted via a draft email with no manual effort

Questions, answered

What entity types does it handle?

It handles any entity type Addepar supports, including trusts, LLCs, holding companies, foundations, and individual accounts, and validates each against its required field set.

Will it send the kickoff email to the onboarding team automatically?

No. The kickoff email is saved as a Gmail draft for a team member to review and send. Nothing is delivered until a human approves it.

What happens if required fields are missing in Addepar?

Missing fields are flagged in the Google Sheets tracker and noted in the draft kickoff email, so the onboarding team knows exactly what to collect before the entity goes live.
