Setup Steps
Configure Trigger

- Automatic OneDrive and SharePoint content capture
- Policy-driven routing to NetDocuments
- Built-in approval workflows before execution
- Full audit trail from trigger to destination
Full chain of custody
Every onboarding and offboarding is tracked end-to-end. Filter by status, trace each matter from sending firm to destination, and verify file counts at every stage.
- Real-time status for every transfer: Completed, In Progress, or Failed
- Filter and search across all firm-to-firm transfers
- Matter-level detail with sending firm, receiving firm, and destination DMS
- File count verification at each step for defensible handoffs
