How to set up a Custom Fact Find

Note: This feature requires Administrative access

Why is this needed?

Custom Fact Find is for targeted clients who require specific information under Fact Finder. The relevant information from the custom field can be used to reproduce in a report via Database Segmentation. It also provides advisers more flexibility to sort through the type of data they need.

Step One

Go to Tools → Custom Fact Find:

Click Add and type in a Section name. Make sure to Save before you proceed.

  • For Individual clients - Will appear in an individual client's fact find
  • For business entity - Will only appear in a business client's fact find
  • Show for Client Logins - Will be accessible to clients who have access to AdviserLogic 
  • Show in Grid - This feature will allow you to create tables for the fields created. You will also have the option to add further details corresponding to the fields created. See example below

You also have additional fields under the Type field which are given below:

  • Variable Name - Used to differentiate between the categories/fields that you create.
  • Conditional Visible -  This is used for backend work only. Please leave this empty.
  • Field Caption - This is the caption that will be displayed.

In this window you can also choose to

  • Have the field as a mandatory input
  • Hide the field from clients
  • Include in your email recipient filters

In the attached screenshot,  the Type is "Small Text Box" and the Field caption is "Details". This would appear as below in the Fact Finder.
