This article will give you guidance on:

• How to pull the report from The Key and upload to Eligible in 3 easy steps.

• How to update submitted case statuses to complete, so they can be added in if applicable (please include the start dates).

Step 1

For Administration: Your firm system administrator can give you access by going to Setup > Users and selecting the relevant adviser. 

Click open and then click the Restrictions tab. Then tick the User can use ad-hoc reports option and any other relevant reports that you see. Click OK to save.

Important information about your Key data extract

The Eligible system will only take in cases with a status as Current OR Complete AND New Business =TRUE.

When you extract your report it will be sorted descending by case status. 

Any cases that have a status as "Submitted" will be included in the report at the top, but these will not be added into the system. You can proceed and upload this extract into Eligible, it is up to you if you would like to check if the "Submitted" ( if applicable) deals are active to get them included. 

If you choose to check these you can do this whilst Eligible loads those marked correctly in the Key, so there aren't delays to your launch

Why doesn't Eligible take cases with a Submitted status?

There is a risk that these deals could be clients who do not have current products with you at all or it details a product that did not go ahead. So for compliance purposes, these deals will not enter the system unless you change this in the Key on each case.

How to fix case statuses

To fix case statuses you will need to remark these in The Key as Complete if you would like these added to the Eligible system. Please ensure they also have a start date.

Below is a tutorial on how to change Submitted case statuses to complete in the Key.
