Every connected client household has one conversation with your practice.
Where conversations live
- Inbox lists every conversation. Needs reply shows the ones with a client message no one at your practice has read yet.
- Waiting on clients shows the ones where your practice wrote last.
- A client's profile has a Messages tab with the same conversation.
Everyone at your practice with access to the client sees the same conversation. On the client side, both partners in the household see it.
Client requests
Clients can tell you something is ready with a quick reply, such as "I’m done loading my liabilities". It arrives as a request in the conversation, tagged Request in the Inbox and listed under Requests until it's done.
- Opening the conversation marks it Seen for the client.
- A liabilities request shows how many liabilities the client has and how many they added since your last message.
- Replying in the conversation marks the requests sent before it done. You can also select Mark done.
- Open liabilities or Open policies takes you to the client's records.
- If a request stays open for 7 days, the client can send it again, which closes the old one.
