Document Settings

Only Allow PDF Documents

Require users to upload all their documents in PDF format.

You can restrict document uploads to PDF docs. PDFs can be rotated, merged, and broken apart right inside Pipeline, saving your agents and admins lots of time. If you allow all document types, non-PDF documents will have these functions disabled. 

To maximize your agents' and admins' efficiency with Paperless Pipeline, we recommend enabling this feature.

Prevent Duplicate Document Uploads

Allow the system to check agents' uploaded documents for duplicates and only allow each file to be uploaded once. Admins will still be able to upload duplicate docs.

When this feature is turned on, Pipeline prevents your agents' from uploading duplicate documents into the same transaction or the same unassigned document location. 

Admins can still upload duplicate docs.

When checking for duplicates, Pipeline compares the content of docs (vs just the doc names). So adding docs with identical content to an existing doc will be disallowed if this option is checked.

Include Key Dates on Coversheet

Include a section of tasks marked as key dates on coversheets. All key dates on a transaction (regardless of their visibility) will appear on a transaction's coversheets if checked.

Tasks designated as Key Dates can be automatically displayed on transaction coversheets in the Transaction Key Dates and Milestones section.

Email Admins Agent Anniversary Reminders

Automatically email master admins and location admins (who have "Manage Users" permission) 5 days before each user's Start Date anniversary. Turn this on if agents' commission splits change on their anniversary and you'd like admins to be reminded to update their commission information.

If you enable the Entered Docs feature, an [Entered] checkbox will be shown on transaction documents. You can then mark documents as [Entered] after you have added them into your accounting system such as Quickbooks or Lonewolf.
