Neo.Tax Automated R&D Study Renewal Tracker
Every Monday, WebRun opens Neo.Tax and identifies client engagements whose current-year R&D study needs to be renewed or initiated for the upcoming tax year. It adds renewal milestones to Google Calendar, drafts a renewal proposal email to each client for manager review, and posts a Slack digest of upcoming renewal windows so no engagement lapses.
How do I automatically track and manage R&D tax credit study renewals for existing clients?

It adds milestones to Google Calendar, stages a draft renewal proposal email per client in Gmail for manager review, and posts a 90-day renewal digest to Slack so no client lapses into an uncovered tax year without a timely conversation.

Every action is checked against this policy before it runs.
Questions, answered
Will it send the renewal proposal to clients automatically?
No. Every renewal proposal is drafted in Gmail and held for the engagement manager to review, personalize, and send. Nothing goes to a client without explicit approval.
How far in advance does it start tracking renewals?
WebRun flags engagements 90 days before the next tax year end, so managers have time to propose a new study before the client's qualifying activities for the year are complete.
What if a client has already started a new-year engagement in Neo.Tax?
WebRun checks whether a new study is already underway in Neo.Tax and removes those clients from the renewal list automatically, so you only see clients who genuinely need follow-up.
