  • Clio Grow Automated Workflows

    You can now custom build automated intake workflows and add tasks to automated workflows in Grow giving you more ways to automate your intake process.

    Adding tasks to your workflow means you or others will automatically be notified when it’s time to complete an action.

    When an automated workflow is running and gets to a task, the next steps will not proceed until the task is marked as complete. This makes adding a task to your workflow ideal for when you need to review client details or complete other manual actions before proceeding onto the next steps of your intake process.
