Create Form Documents using Data from the Power Information Powertool

Once case information has been entered in the PIP, the data can be used to generate documents in your word processor through the new Form Generator. Documents are created using data fields from the PIP Case Management system. The system comes with a small library of forms, which include generic letters to demand and settlement letters, client retainers, and state and federal pleadings. However, any or all of your form documents can be integrated into our system, such as judicial council forms. 

Use Our Merge Codes to Integrate Your Own Documents as Templates

Our system includes a library of Merge Codes which can be used to turn your form documents into Document Templates in the PIP system.  To create your own Document Template, open one of your form documents in your word processor.  Select the codes from the PIP Merge Code Library which represent the data from the PIP that you want to include on your Document Template.  You can copy the codes from our library and paste them into your document. Save the Document Template in RTF format when you are done (this is just a selection in the Save File dialog box in most word processors). Letters also include your firms letterhead, and make it easy and efficient to create documents with the click of your mouse. 

From the Document Template manager, click on the "Add New Document" button, select your document from its location on your computer, and the PIP will scan the document for Merge Codes and add the Document Template into the library. That is the entire process. Once you are familiar with the Merge Code Library, you will be able to create Document Templates in minutes.

Modify Document Templates

Document Templates can be modified any time by using the "Edit" feature in the PIP Document Template Manager.  Once you have added or changed Merge Codes, use the "Read" feature to scan the Document Template into the system again.  This will allow the PIP Document Template Manager to identify the Merge Codes that you have added or changed.

Works with any RTF-Compatible Word Processor

The PIP Form Generator can be used with any word processor that can read Rich Text Format (RTF).  Therefore, it is compatible with Microsoft Word, Corel WordPerfect, iWork Pages, OpenOffice, and many others.
