February 2023 Release: Onboarding 2.0

February 2023 Release: Onboarding 2.0

Each no code / low code platform is only as good as the ability of its power users to customize it for the use cases of their organizations.

We love our power users, so we built a brand new comprehensive onboarding for Workspace Administrators to help them understand each Legito component in detail.

New Onboarding consists of seven chapters: 

  • Get to know Legito
  • Document Lifecycle Management
  • Document Automation
  • Building Custom Applications
  • Collaboration & Negotiation
  • Digital Signing
  • Measure & Improve Performance

 

Each chapter is divided into several steps. You can enjoy all the video tutorials, guided tours, courses, references to the resources, and other actions.

To access the new Onboarding, open the My Account dropdown and select Workspace Onboarding. 

Administrators of newly created Workspaces will choose the core use cases for the Workspace. They will also have the Onboarding widget on their Dashboard. This widget only contains components for the use cases selected in the previous step.

New release will be deployed to all Legito server locations within 24 hours.

Challenges

  • Our document creation process includes many repetitive tasks involved in the loan origination, assignment, extension, and third-party reporting processes.
  • The continual creation of legal documents are almost always the same, except for a few variable fields (borrower, property, loan amount), which leads to prolonged preparation times and higher susceptibility to errors.

  • The continual creation of legal documents are almost always the same, except for a few variable fields (borrower, property, loan amount), which leads to prolonged preparation times and higher susceptibility to errors.

How Legito was selected

  • Legito was recommended by a friend who owns a fund administration business and uses Legito to draft contracts and agreements.
  • A short trial was performed to determine if templates could be easily created and maintained by our staff using Legito’s “no-code” technology. 
  • We tested requirements critical to our use case, including creation of document “suites” or “packages” and complex conditional logic.

Key factors for selecting Legito:

  • Legito was exactly what we needed. Very easy to use, the interface is extremely user friendly, yet designed to accommodate complexity of financial documentation. 
  • Legito’s Professional Services team demonstrated expert consultation in templating and financial industry experience.
  • Where certain critical business requirements could not be directly accommodated by Legito, the system is versatile enough to develop appropriate workarounds and ultimately produce our desired output.

Implementation and User Onboarding

  • We utilized Legito’s Professional Services team to build templates.
  • After initial templates were fully tested, templates were delegated to each department to refine and ultimately incorporate into their processes.
  • Usage and overall adoption of Legito was quick as it declutters all processes and anyone can jump in to draft documents without any training.

Results

  • Legito templates are used throughout the organization as required. Each major process now has several templates available for usage, which reduces time and mitigates errors.
  • Our Sales Team uses Legito templates to create term sheets, and the Legal Department uses templates for assignments, extensions, etc.
  • Documents can be generated by anyone in the business with minimum errors, even if they are new and unfamiliar with drafting our documents. Users simply answer a series of questions to produce client-ready documents.
  • Wait time for clients to receive term sheets is greatly reduced, which is very important in our business as potential clients need responses quickly.

January 2023 Release: QR Code Element & UX Improvements

January 2023 Release: QR Code Element & UX Improvements

1)  QR Code Element

Legito Templates has a new Element type: QR Code

The QR Code Element can generate QR codes based on the content of the Document created from a Template, including information (data) inserted by the end user.

It is possible to define QR Code content by using either JSON or XML inserted into the Item Menu.

To include a value from an Element in the Template Suite into the QR Code, insert $ followed by the Template ID and System Name of an Element in {}, for example {12345.first_party_name}. Legito will help you to choose a Template and Element.

It is also possible to include the URL address of the Document Version or Document Record using ${DR.detailLink} or ${DV.documentEditorLink}. For more details, please read the instructions in the user interface.

Choose the size of the QR Code by dragging its right lower corner or using the Properties tab similarly to the Image Element.

Real-time preview of a QR code is available on the right side of the Item menu. QR Code in the Template content is updated when the Item menu is closed.

QR Code in the Document Editor is generated or updated in the Document Editor when the Document Version is saved.

2) Faster Template Editor Loading 

We improved loading of sophisticated Templates in the Template Editor so the scrolling is now much smoother. 

3) JSON Integration Matching Improvements

We added a new feature for matching JSON Integration attributes with Elements in Legito Templates. In addition to matching JSON attributes with a specific Element in the Template Suite, you can now  match it with the first Element where the System Name contains a certain string. This is especially useful for when a Clause from the Clause Library is used in a Template Suite, and is needed to fill-in Clause content with data from an incoming JSON file. 

4) Page Numbering in Body of Template

You can insert the Page Number Element into the body of a Template. Previously, it was only possible to insert it to header or footer only.

Legito’s current Document Editor has pageless view only, so the Page Number Element is applied to the Exported Documents (Word/PDF) only.

December 2022 Release: Default Values and Word Insertion Section

December 2022 Release: Default Values and Word Insertion Section

1) Conditional Default Values for Elements and Clauses

You can now set one or multiple Default Values for Template Elements and Clauses.

To set a Default Value, open a Template in the Template Editor, click an Element or the Edit button for a Clause, open Default Values tab in the top Element/Clause menu, click the “+ Default Value” button, and insert or choose the Default Value of that Element or Clause.

If more than one Default Value is set for the same Element or Clause:
  • Each Default Value has to be conditioned. Conditional Default Values work similarly to Conditions for Elements and Clauses, including multiple sub-conditions and nested conditions (condition groups).
  • Until a user manually changes a value of an Element or a Clause in the Document Editor, the Default Value will change dynamically based on the relevant choices or inputs a user done elsewhere in the Template Suite.
  • In the case of conflicted Default Values, the system will apply the one that is higher in the order (e.g. From Default Value 1 and 2, 1 will be applied).
Default Value can by added to the following types of Elements and Clauses:
  • Question (Default Value is defined by choosing one answer to the Question)
  • Text Input (Default Value is defined by inserting text string)
  • Select (Default Value is defined by choosing one option from the Select)
  • Date (Default Value is defined by inserting a date)
  • Money (Default Value is defined by inserting an amount and choosing a currency)
  • Switcher (Default Value is defined by choosing either Active or Deactivated status)
  • Article, Paragraph, Subparagraph, Point, and Item (Default Value is defined by choosing either Active or Removed status)

Prior to the release of this feature, we recommended using Default Template Settings in the Document Editor for default values. The Default Template Settings feature is not affected by Conditional Default Values and Default Template Settings will work in the same way.

Limitations:
  • Default Values do not work for Questions or Selects referring to Objects.
  • Default Values do not work for Reference Options in Questions, and Selects that are referring to repeated Elements (or Elements in repeated Clauses).
  • Limitations for Conditions are applicable to conditional Default Values.

2) Word Insertion Section

There may be a situation where you need to allow users to upload a Word document into a Legito document, typically a technical description or service specification, and export everything as one document. For these situations, we developed a special type of Next Page Section – a Word Insertion Section that will allow users upload a Word document to the Document Editor.

There can be multiple Word Insertion Sections in one Template.

The content of the uploaded Word document is exported together with other content of the Template from Legito to a Word or PDF document. Content in each uploaded Word document will be exported to its own separate Next Page Section.

To add a Word Insertion Section, go to the Template Editor, scroll down to the “+ Next Page Section” button and click the chevron on the right, then select “+ Word Insertion Section”.

Conditions and Repeat may be added to the Word Insertion Section.

Users can upload the Word document in the Document editor to this Section by clicking the Upload button and selecting the .docx file. Once uploaded, the file can be removed by clicking on the trash icon in the top right corner. The Element also contains the preview of the uploaded Word document.

Notes:

  • Elements or Clauses cannot be inserted to the Word Insertion Section because its content is defined by the inserted Word document.
  • Word Insertion Section does not have a Header and Footer because these are defined by the inserted Word Document.
  • If the uploaded Word document has correctly defined Page Numbering, it will continue from the previous Section when the final document is exported from Legito.
