Click Create to start building a new template that can be sent to the other agent. Note that this feature is intended for creating a template letter that will be sent on behalf of your client (the person signing the documents) to inform the other agent that their services are no longer required and you will now be representing the client as their new agent.

5. Edit content of the template

Paste or write content of your template into the document editor.

6. Select Contact fields

Don’t forget to add a signature space to your letter in the appropriate location. Click Save Template to store your changes and updates to the form template.

9. Edit Client Template

Now, go back to your templates list. You will need to edit the client template that you want to associate your other agent template to. Click the pencil icon to edit.

10. Allow Other Agent in Advanced Settings

For each template that you want to associate the other agent template to, you will need to go to Advanced Settings, toggle “Allow other agents” and select the other agent template that you created.

11. Save Template with Allow Other Agent enabled

Now, save your template. When you send this template in the future, you will be able to add the other agent. When your client template is sent and signed by your client, the other agent template will be sent on behalf of your client to the agent selected.

12. Send Form

Click Send to open the Send Form dialog. This is where you will be able to search for the agent’s details by NPN.

13. Allow other agent

Toggle “Allow other agent” to open the NPN search box.

You will need the NPN number of the other agent. Enter it here to search for the other agent’s name and contact info.

15. Edit Manually

If the NPN search does not return the correct information for the agent, “Edit Manually” to update the information as needed. Here’s a Tip: If you don’t know the NPN of the other agent, or if you are trying to send to someone without an NPN, type in your own and then edit the fields as needed.

16. Save Changes

Click Save to indicate you are done editing and save the other agent’s information.

17. Select Contact Name

Don’t forget to select your client’s name as Contact Signer 1.

18. Send Form

You are now ready to send. Your client will receive the client template. Once they have signed, the other agent template will be sent to the agent on behalf of your client, as per the details that you saved before sending.
