In short

How do I set up a document checklist for every new NetDocuments matter?

WebRun checks NetDocuments every hour for matters created since the last run. It builds a Notion checklist of the required documents for that matter type and adds a row to Google Sheets to track it, so every new matter starts with the same document checklist instead of relying on someone remembering what's needed.

  • Every new matter gets the same required document checklist
  • Nothing required is missed because someone forgot to ask
  • The matter log stays current without a manual spreadsheet update

Good to know

Questions, answered

Does it upload or file any documents itself?

No. WebRun only creates a checklist of what's required. Uploading, drafting, or filing an actual document into NetDocuments stays with the attorney or paralegal.

How does it know which documents are required?

You give WebRun a standard checklist per matter type, such as litigation or transactional, and it applies the matching one to each new matter.

What happens if a matter type isn't covered?

It's still logged to Google Sheets and flagged so someone can add a checklist template for that matter type.
