Why firms connect SharePoint

One document store, organised for you

Your files stay where your firm already keeps them. FigsFlow does the naming, the filing and the finding.

01Setup

Your site, your files

Connect the SharePoint site your firm uses and choose the root folder. FigsFlow uses it as the home for client documents.

02Structure

Folders that follow the client

Client and year folders are created as clients are added, with file names that follow your firm’s standard.

03Access

Access you control

Who sees what follows FigsFlow roles and your SharePoint permissions. Clients see only what you share to their portal.

FigsFlow and SharePoint together

From file to filed, every time

01

Client uploads

Portal uploads land in SharePoint

When a client uploads through the portal, the file goes straight to the right SharePoint folder and appears on the client record.

  • No downloading and re-saving
  • Consistent names and folders
  • Upload time and uploader recorded
02

Find it fast

Preview inline, without downloading

Open any document from the client record with page thumbnails and zoom, and see who uploaded it and when.

  • Inline preview for common file types
  • Upload history on every file
  • Search by client, year and type
03

Email attachments

Attachments from email, filed too

With email connected, attachments from client emails are saved to the same SharePoint folders, linked to the email they arrived with.

  • One home for every client file
  • Linked back to the original email
  • Nothing stuck in an inbox
04

Signed documents

Signed letters stored with their certificate

Signed proposals, engagement letters and consents are stored in SharePoint with their completion certificate, ready whenever someone asks.

  • The signed copy, not a draft
  • Certificate kept beside it
  • Easy to share with a reviewer

FAQ

Questions about documents and SharePoint

Where are the documents stored?

In your firm's SharePoint, in the site and folders you choose during setup. FigsFlow shows them on the client record.

Can we keep our existing folder structure?

During setup we look at your current client folders and agree how FigsFlow should file into them, so you do not have to start again.

What can clients see?

Only documents you share to their portal. Everything else stays internal to your firm.

We do not use SharePoint. Can we still use FigsFlow?

This page covers firms that keep documents in SharePoint. If you use something else, ask us during your demo how documents would work for your setup.
