How to Automate Intake Sign-up & Matter Conversion

This article demonstrates how to create a process that automatically signs up intakes and opens matter records for referrals matching the following conditions:

• Originating Firm: Pulliam LP
• Case Type: Construction

1. Create Process

2. Select New.
3. Complete the following fields:
   • Process Name: Automate Signup & Conversion Pulliam
   • API Name: Automate_Signup_Conversion_Pulliam
   • Description: Automatically signs up and converts referred intakes.
   • This process starts when: A record Changes
     
4. Save. You are taken to the Process Builder UI.

2. Add Object

1. Select + Add Object.
2. Complete the following fields:
   
   • Object: Intake
   • Start the process: when a record is created or edited.
3. Save. 

3. Add Criteria 

1. Select + Add Criteria. 
2. Complete the following fields: 
   • Criteria Name: Pulliam Referral
   • Criteria for Executing Actions: Conditions are met 
3. Set the following conditions: 
   

   Field	Operator	Type	Value
   Case Type > Case Type Name	Equals	String	Construction
   Referral > Originating Firm > Record ID	Equals	String	This ID can be found in the URL of the handling firm's Firm record page.

4. Enable All of the conditions are met (AND). You can later expand this to ANY if you have 2 or more firms you accept Construction case types from.
   
5. Expand the Advanced section.
6. Enable Yes for executing the actions only when specified changes are made to the record.
7. Save.

4. Add Action

This action takes the record ID of the intake matching the previously defined criteria and signs up the referral.

1. Select + Add Action.
2. Complete the following fields:
   • Action Type: Apex
   • Action Name:  Pulliam Referrals 
   • Apex Class: Sign Up
3. Set Apex variables for the action. Each Litify Action has different field requirements for Apex Variables.
   

   Field	Type	Value
   record_id	Field Reference	Record ID

4.  Save.

5. Add Second Action

1. Select + Add Action.
2. Complete the following fields:
   • Action Type: Apex
   • Action Name:  Pulliam Open Matter  
   • Apex Class: Open Matter
3. Set Apex variables for the action. Each Litify Action has different field requirements for Apex Variables. At this stage, you can also add a field that selects a matter plan or matter team.
   

   Field	Type	Value
   record_id	Field Reference	Record ID
   matter_owner	Field Reference	Owner ID > User ID
   case_type	Field Reference	Litify_PM__Case_Type__C
