Step 2: Choose the type of Vault

You can choose to create a vault for an Individual, a Household or an Organization. Select your preference. 

Vault Types - Individual Vault, Household Vault, Organization Vault

Step 3: Add the information required

  • Vault name (Household / Organization). This name will be displayed on the vault list. 
  • First Name, Last Name, and Email Address / or primary contact. This name will be displayed on the vault list. 
  • Pick the Entity (Individual / Organization)
  • Add Reference number (If applicable)
  • Select the Package. Learn more here.
  • Select Folder Structure Template (folder structure)
  • Select the Language

Vault name: can be edit at any time on the "Detail" page. It will be use on some email notifications like invitation to collaborate inside the vault.

The First Name & Last Name: can be edit at any time on the "Detail" page. The First Name and Last Name set at the moment of the creation will be used to define the first part of the inbound email address and the first entity name. For example, if the name is Charles X Smith the inbound email address will be charlesx.smith.RANDONNUMBER@futurevault.com and the Entity Name will be named Charles X Smith.

Email Address: This email will be associated with the Vault, and it will be the login email of your client to access their Vault. You can edit this email when the status of the Vault is “Created” or “Invited.” Once the Vault is activated, it cannot be modified. Each Vault needs to have one unique email address and cannot be associated with an administrator account on the same portal. NOTE: If your system has a Single Sing-On integration (i.e. with Active Directory / D1G1T) please use the same email address that was used to set up the client in that platform. 

Entity (Individual / Organization): Use the dropdown to select the options.

Reference Number: unique ID or identifier that allow mapping of documents during bulk uploads.

PackageChoose the package you would like this client to have. The package will define the type of Vault, including the number of entities, storage capacity, and the taxonomy available for the Vault. These packages are defined during the contract.

Taxonomy TemplateYou may have the ability to create multiple Taxonomy Template. If you have this tool enable you will be able to choose here the different folder structures.

LanguageThe default language the Vault will be created and the language on the email notifications.

Step 4: Send activation email

  • If you would like to send the activation email right away, click the box next to "Send Activation Email". This email will contain an Activation button that needs to be clicked by the client first to be able to get to the login page. From there, the client will use the credentials on the email; the platform will request them to change the password and accept the Terms of Services.
  • If you want to pre-populate the Vault before letting your client know about their Vault, just leave the box unchecked. 
  • Don't send an activation email if you client will be using a SSO.

Once the Vault is ready, you can send the activation email on your Vault List and on the "See Details" page under “Actions.” Learn here more about sending the activation email.

Info! If the user logs in to their portal, you cannot resend the activation email. If the Vault is with the status “Created” or “Invited”, you can definitively resend the activation email, if the Vault said Active / Inactive but there is not last login date register you can still resend the activation email.
Recommend! We highly recommended prepopulate the Vault and send a welcome email before sending the activation email for the Vault. Get from your Customer Success team some Welcome email templates with your Marketing package.
