How The Automation Works

The full workflow, from trigger to completion.

1. Meeting Summary Email Receivedtrigger

An advisor sends a meeting summary email to the compliance inbox. The automation monitors for emails with compliance-related keywords and client names.

2. Extract Meeting Data

The automation parses the email to extract client name, date, topics, products discussed, and advisor name. The extracted data is structured and validated.

3. Check Compliance Rules

The automation looks up the client type and products discussed against a compliance rule matrix to determine required documentation (suitability, disclosure, etc.).

4. Generate Compliance Documents

Required forms are automatically populated with client and advisor details, signed with timestamps, and saved to the archive.

5. Log

Meeting summary, extracted details, and generated documents are automatically logged to the client record with full audit trail.

6. Update Compliance Dashboard

The master compliance log and deadline tracker are automatically updated. Upcoming deadlines trigger reminders to advisors and compliance staff.

7. Send Confirmation

A confirmation message is posted with a summary of the logged meeting, any documents generated, and next steps.
