Clearing Stipulations

Item

Details

Get Started

When a preliminary proposal is ordered and closing docs are sent, customers will receive an email directing them to activate their Palmetto account via their web browser.

  • Homeowners will complete the stipulation clearing process via their account (accessible via web browser or via app download).

  • Email Subject Line: "Welcome to Palmetto Solar! Let's activate your solar account." -Or- SMS Link invite.

Pro Tip: Set expectations with the customer so that they have the required documents on hand when they get started so they're able to complete each one easier.

ACH Instant-Link

Recommended method

  • NTP requirement. It is the responsibility of the Certified Installer to ensure execution of this with the homeowner. Therefore, it is recommended to complete ACH at point of sale when possible.

  • Instantly link to the homeowner's bank (most major banks covered)

ACH Manual Link

Alternate option to an instant-link.

  • For homeowners without a major bank/instant linking, manual input of bank info + a voided check is required.

  • Information input is secure, and voided checks are deleted after validation for security.

  • For this option, homeowner will manually key in their bank account information and snap a voided check photo. Visuals below.

Signing Contract

Homeowners can now sign their LightReach contract in their Palmetto account. Make the process more seamless for your customers by putting all the steps they need to complete in one place.

Click "Sign Contract" in the list of tasks to open the contract in DocuSign.

Close-Out

Don't stop until all stips are cleared!

Like the examples above, each item in the app will clearly explain all requirements to your customer, but it's up to you to make sure they know that they need to complete all the items in the app in order to have the stipulations cleared and for their order to move on.

Don't Forget: If customers miss or delete the email directing them to complete these steps, you can send them an invitation to the App at any time from the right hand side of the customer's contact page in the sales platform.
