Prework for New Users

To get your team up and running quickly, it’s important to get hands-on prior to going live with FYI. 'Prework for New Users' enables you to do this, whilst maintaining the integrity of your client data.

What is it: Prework is triggered via an automation and consists of a series of tasks for each user to complete in your FYI platform. Emails, documents, jobs and tasks will automatically populate for each user using a sample client, who is one of our favourite superheroes!

Timing: Allow 30 minutes per user.

When to complete: For new practices, we recommend getting your team to complete this course in the week leading up to going live with FYI. For existing practices, complete after your new user is synced to FYI, during your employee onboarding process. 

Pre-requisites: It is important that the New User Learn courses are completed prior to commencing 'Prework for New Users'. Why? Prework encourages users to self-navigate and they will need to understand the fundamentals of FYI to complete this effectively.

Steps to Get Started

The FYI Admin is required to complete the following three steps, in order to get Prework underway.

Step 1: Enable Sample Content.
Go to Practice Settings - General and enable the Sample Content setting. This creates a set of sample clients and enables a sample Cabinet for documents, tasks and jobs to be filed to.

Step 2: Locate the Prework for new users - trigger automation
From the Automations Dashboard, locate the 'Prework for new users - trigger' automation and click on the cog to edit the automation.

This pre-populates sample Templates in your Knowledge Workspace.
It also creates the "Prework for new users - exercises" Automation.

Important Note: you do not need to edit or run the exercises automation as this will happen automatically.

Step 3: Activate the 'Prework for new users - trigger' automation
You have two options, Scheduled or Manual.

➡️Steps to run as Scheduled (recommended approach)

The automation runs based on a set schedule and filter, without any input along the way.

1. Review the Filter. The automation is set up to run for all Employees who have completed the 'Building your Foundations' Learn course, as this is the recommended pre-requisite to completing Prework.
   Note: Employee views have been created for the specific purpose of Prework. You can change the view to 'Active Employees' if you wish to run Prework for all users in your practice, regardless of whether they have completed the Learn course.
2. Set the Status to Active. Every hour, the automation checks for additional Employees who meet the filter condition, and is automatically triggered.
   Note: the Automation will only run once per employee.

➡️Steps to run as Manual

1. Set the Status to Active.
2. Update the Trigger to Manual.
3. Review the Filter. The automation is set up to run for all Employees who have completed the 'Building your Foundations' Learn course, as this is the recommended pre-requisite to completing Prework.
   Note: Employee views have been created for the specific purpose of Prework. You can change the view to 'Active Employees' if you wish to run Prework for all users in your practice, regardless of whether they have completed the Learn course.
4. Click Run. The automation runs for Employees who meet the filter condition. Note: the Automation will only run once per employee.
   
   Tip: To run the automation for yourself first, or for one user, click Test. It will make it easier to assist other users if you have completed the prework first.

How do I run Prework for an individual user?

1. To run Prework for an individual user, first ensure that Sample Content is enabled.
2. Then click the cog in Prework for new users - trigger automation:
3. Click ‘Test’ and search for the Employee Name.
   Note: If the Automation has previously been run for this Employee, enable the Ignore Process Filter setting.
   
4. Select the Employee and click Run Test.

Do I need to run the Prework for new users - exercises process?

The simple answer is No. This process runs automatically in the background and is controlled by the "trigger" process. 

The trigger process contains an Execute Process at Step #3. This means once the process reaches this step, it automatically executes the exercises process until it is completed, and then returns to the trigger process.

Why am I receiving a "Specified sender unavailable" error for the sample emails?

If the sample documents have been created for the client Luke Skywalker, and the emails are set to Draft, it typically means that the exercises process has been run, rather than the trigger process.

You can confirm this is the case if there are no jobs created for your client Luke Skywalker. There should be a job for each team member you have run the process for.

Next step - locate and run the Prework for new users - trigger process. This runs against Employees and creates a job and a set of sample documents for each team member.
