Page 4 Chapter 1: Software Installation and Startup

Installation Preparation In order to properly install the TitleSoft software, it is imperative that certain tasks be completed. The network must be configured properly and visible from all workstations.

 From the Server machine, create a folder named “TITLESOFT.”  Share the folder and ensure all users have read/write access assigned.  Copy the CLIENT directory on the CD media received with shipment to the new TITLESOFT folder OR copy the SETUPCLIENT.EXE file downloaded from the WWW download center.  From each workstation, map the newly created folder (“TITLESOFT”) to a network drive (i.e. F:, T:, etc.).  Confirm that the client installation software is visible (But, do not run).

Installing INTELLAsuite Installation of INTELLAsuite software applications including INTELLAclose, INTELLAstore, and INTELLAservices etc. is accomplished in a similar manner as other MS Windows based software applications.

There are three different install configurations:

1. Server 2. Standalone 3. Client Workstation

Server: If possible, this installation should be performed on the server platform directly. Part of the installation process is to automatically run “INTELLAfiles,” which builds the files necessary to run the program. If you are upgrading from a previous version, ensure to select the same directory where the previous version is installed. To allow program access, the Client program should be installed on all workstations. Follow the instruction for the Client installation below.

Standalone: Same as Server installation. There is no need to utilize the Client install until additional workstations are licensed.

Client Workstation: Before installation, ensure each workstation has access to the server where the INTELLAclose files are physically located, via a mapped network drive. Follow the Client installation instructions below to install software. Note: All workstations must be registered to grant access to all sections of INTELLAsuite. Before registering software, the system administrator should install Client software on all workstations that will run TitleSoft software, to take advantage of the concurrent (“Floating”) LAN license manager integrated in the software. Please follow the steps in next chapter to register software.

Server Installation (performed on server)  Insert CD in CD ROM drive of the server (or workstation) from which software installation will be performed.  Close all open software applications.  Double-click the My Computer icon.  Double-click the CD-ROM icon. Contents of the CD will be displayed.  Double-click SETUP.EXE.  Installation directory/path: . Single User – no Network  Install to C:\. . Multiple User – Local Area Network (LAN) (NT NOTE: User must be logged on as Administrator)  Install to network drive (ROOT – F:\, T:\, etc) created above. . WAN – Wide Area Network (NT NOTE: User must be logged on as Administrator)  Install to network drive (ROOT – F:\, T:\, etc), which is visible from each client workstation.

Client Installation (performed on each workstation)  Locate the CLIENT folder in the new directory.  Double-click CLIENT folder. Client folder contents will be displayed. Note: SETUP.EXE for client install does not need to be run/installed on the server/workstation used to install server software.  Double-click SETUP.EXE.  Installation directory/path: . Multiple User – Local Area Network (LAN) (NT NOTE: User must be logged on as Administrator)  Install to same network drive/location as server installation (F:\INTELLA, T:\INTELLA, etc). . WAN – Wide Area Network (NT NOTE: User must be logged on as Administrator)  Install to same network drive/location as server installation (F:\INTELLA, T:\INTELLA, etc).  Double-click Client INTELLAclose icon to confirm proper installation (application should run when icon is double-clicked).

 Installation Notes:  It is important to ensure the latest SERVER release is installed. The version/release number is clearly visible on the media shipped or on the web download page. Please contact the technical support department prior to installation if you are unsure.  Always install the latest version of SERVER software to the same working directory on the LAN server (or standalone workstation).  It is important to run the INTELLAclose on all CLIENT workstations after installation to ensure network mapping etc. is properly configured and BEFORE registering TitleSoft software.  It is rarely necessary to RE-INSTALL CLIENT software if previously installed. The CLIENT workstation software usually does NOT require technology updates. Re-registering of software is usually only necessary when additional workstations are added to LAN and/or additional licenses are purchased.  TitleSoft utilizes a concurrent (“Floating”) license manager. The thin-client software may be installed on UNLIMITED workstations requiring access to the LAN server. This MUST be completed prior to Registration of software or the TitleSoft licensing software will NOT recognize those workstations. The actual number of concurrent licenses available at ONE-TIME is controlled by the number of licenses purchased. An error message will appear if you exceed the number licensed.  It is imperative that software and data backup procedures exist within the corporate structure. Backing up your data allows for a reduction in downtime in the event there are hardware, virus, or other issues. Please contact your hardware/IT provider for more information.  Installing an update of INTELLAclose will not disturb any existing data files at the time of installation. However, all existing files will be “Reorganized” by INTELLAclose’s utility program at the end of the installation process. Therefore, it is highly recommended to perform a backup prior to installing software updates. TitleSoft regularly enhances INTELLAclose by adding either new fields and/or new functionality. Reorganizing existing files simply alters them to include new fields or attributes such that they are fully usable in an updated version of the program. Reorganization never deletes a field or attribute. As a result, updates of INTELLAclose are always backwards compatible with previous versions.  After the installation and reorganization is complete, System Setup will create a program group in program manager that will contain the INTELLAsuite icons.

Starting INTELLAsuite Since INTELLAsuite is fully integrated, the INTELLAclose Startup Screen provides the user one-click-access to any portion of the program, providing the ability to centrally manage the entire workflow from a main application. Figure 1.1 below shows the INTELLAclose Startup application main screen.

Figure 1.1. INTELLAclose Startup

Page 6 Security and Initial Login The security features allow the administrator to grant or deny access into almost every INTELLAsuite program. The security feature is optional, but access rights are required for some INTELLAsuite programs.

The first time the application suite is installed, the administrator’s user ID and password are both “ADMIN”. All users will have administrator privileges until the administrator password is changed.

Initial Login as Administrator 1. Click the INTELLAloser icon located on the desktop or in the Start menu. 2. The Login Screen will appear. Type ADMIN for the user ID and password then press enter or click the login button. The Administrator login will be used until user logins are generated later in this guide.

Changing Servers There may be a need over time to upgrade computer hardware. The following instructions should assist in the migration of the INTELLAsuite applications to the new server platform.

1. Server a. Create a folder named “TITLESOFT” on the server b. Copy INTELLA and IACSCAN to TITLESOFT on server c. Share the TITLESOFT folder d. For icons, run Client setup to c:\titlesoft\intella 2. Workstations a. Map the TITLESOFT folder on server to a drive letter (i.e. F:\, T:\, etc.) b. Delete all icons on desktop c. Delete INTELLAclient or INTELLAserver (if present) from start menu d. Run client setup to x:\intella e. Open INTELLAclose to verify mapping is correct on the network 3. System Setup a. Verify all workstations are registered (Are able to access TitleSoft applications, if not… i. Print Registration Form ii. Fax form to TitleSoft as directed on form b. If all workstations are registered, you are ready to run software! Chapter 2: Global Settings The Global Settings section of the INTELLAclose System Setup module is used to generate and modify various tables and configurations that are used throughout the entirety of the software application. There may be some settings that are not pertinent to specific geographic locations. There are very few areas of setup that are required for operation of the software. Those that are not necessary may be left out of the setup process. My Information Once the administrator has logged into INTELLAclose Startup, follow the steps below to begin configuration of the system.

Release License Locks Occasionally, users may improperly exit the software causing licensing locks. Licensing locks may cause other users to be unable to access the software. To release these locks: 1. Have all system users exit the software. 2. From System Setup, Registration, click the Release License Locks button. This will release all license locks from the system, allowing the maximum number of users licensed access to the software. State/County/Zip (Recording Costs)

Figure 2.6. State/County/Zip Screen

The State/County/Zip setup is unique in that it can be setup using separate figures for counties and states, or it can be setup to use the same information for all counties in a particular state. Much like the Underwriter tables, these tables are easy to setup and use and may be organized to cover most any type of situation the user would encounter. In the event your tables do not calculate properly, please contact technical support for assistance.

Fees are setup by state and county. For each county, different rates may be setup for lines 1201-1203. 1204 is configured as a state line and is not configurable for each county. To copy rates for a line to every county, click the Apply same rates to all counties (only 120X) button.

HUD Line 1201 Calculations

Figure 2.7. HUD Line 1201 – Example 1

HUD Line 1201 calculations are the fees required for the recording of documents (deeds and mortgages) in the public record. The configuration consists of one fee for the first page and a second fee for each additional page. An indexing charge is also available for additional calculations.

Example (Figure 2.7): To record a 5 page document: $10.00 for page 1, and $8.50 for pages 2-5 = $44.00

If a flat fee is charged for the recording of a document, regardless of the size, that amount would be entered in the field for the first page calculation. If a flat fee is charged for a document of, for example, 10 pages, but an additional charge is incurred for other pages, then enter the base charge for the first page field and the additional charge in the second field. If an additional fee is charged, or an additional amount is needed for further calculations, the Indexing charge field may be used.

Page 12 Figure 2.8. HUD Line 1201 – Example 2

Example (Figure 2.8): To record a 15 page mortgage: $25.00 for first 10 pages, $55.00 for any additional pages = $80.00 To record a 2 page deed: $25.00 for first 10 pages, $5.00 to transfer title (indexing charge) = $30.00

HUD Line 1202 Calculations

Figure 2.9. HUD Line 1202 – Example 1

HUD Line 1202 calculations may be used for documentary stamps, recording taxes, or other county/state fees.

Example (Figure 2.9): Deed: For every $100 in the sales price, $.70 is charged. The sales price is rounded up to the nearest $100. Sales price of $250,000 = $1,750.00 Mortgage: For every $100 in the loan amount, $.35 is charged. The loan amount is rounded up to the nearest $100. Loan amount of $175,000 = $612.50

Figure 2.10. HUD Line 1202 – Example 2

Example (Figure 2.10) Deed: For every $500 in the sales price, $1.75 is charged. For amounts over $150,000, an additional $.75 is charged per $500 for a total of $2.50 per $500. The sales price is rounded up to the nearest $500. Sales price of $250,000 = $1,025.00 Mortgage: For every $500 in the loan amount, $.75 is charged. For amounts over $150,000, and additional $.25 is charged per $500 for a total of $1.00 per $500. The loan amount is rounded up to the nearest $500. Loan amount of $175,000 = $275.00 Figure 2.11. HUD Line 1202 – Example 3

Example (Figure 2.11) Deed: For every $100 in the sales price, $1.00 is charged. The sales price is rounded up to the nearest $100. Sales price of $150,000 = $1,500.00 Apply Diff. only if Mort. > Deed checkbox is checked. Only the deed/sales price will be calculated if the sales price is greater than the loan amount. However, if the loan amount exceeds the sales price, the additional amount will be calculated as follows: Mortgage: For every $100 in the loan amount greater than the sales price, $1.00 is charged. The excess loan amount is rounded up to the nearest $100. Loan amount of $175,000 = $25,000 = $250.00

HUD Line 1203 Calculations

Figure 2.12. HUD Line 1203 – Example

HUD Line 1203 calculations may be used for documentary stamps, recording taxes, or other county/state fees. A field is available to assign a custom description.

Example (Figure 2.12) Deed: For every $500 in the sales price, $2.20 is charged. The sales price is rounded up to the nearest $500. Sales price of $150,000 = $660.00 Apply Diff. only if Mort. > Deed checkbox is checked. Only the deed/sales price will be calculated if the sales price is greater than the loan amount. However, if the loan amount exceeds the sales price, the additional amount will be calculated as follows: Mortgage: For every $500 in the loan amount greater than the sales price, $2.20 is charged. The excess loan amount is rounded up to the nearest $500. Loan amount of $175,000 = $25,000 = $110.00

Default Payor

Figure 2.13. Default Payor

For lines 1202 and 1203, the Default Payor is determined by entering a percentage for each calculated fee.

HUD Line 1204 Calculations

Figure 2.14. HUD Line 1204

HUD Line 1204 is used for statewide calculations and is the simplest. The rate is based on either the Loan Amount or Sale Price, but not both. There is also no rounding feature. A description and payee may be assigned and the fee may be split between the buyer and seller.

Page 14 Additional States and Counties In the rare event the system proves limiting, duplicate (or additional) states and/or counties may be added to the lists. Massachusetts requires two state listings in order to calculate certain fees. There are two different types of fees for each county depending on several variables. A duplicate state is generated with all counties allowing the fees to all be calculated by the system.

Underwriters The Underwriters screen is used to configure the various functionalities that pertain to underwriters. There are four tabs used in this section:

Figure 2.15. Main Underwriter Screen

1. Information – information specific to the selected underwriter 2. Policy Number Setup – document inventory control 3. Premium Tables – premium calculation tables used to generate HUD charges 4.

Figure 2.19. Add New Premium Table Screen

Note: In the event your specific tables do not calculate properly, please contact technical support for further assistance.

Adding a New Premium Table Click the Add button to generate a new premium table for configuration. A blank table will be generated for modification. Below is a description of the different settings and features of the premium table configuration.

Page 18 Figure 2.20. Premium Table Configuration Screen

Tables are created line by line to allow for the most comprehensive rate tables.

1. Amount: The amount of the sale price/loan amount for the current step in the rate table. 2. Owner: The amount charged for an Owner’s policy for the step. 3. O Rei. Credit (Owner’s Reissue Credit): The amount credited for a policy to which a reissue credit is permitted. 4. Loan: The amount charged for a Loan policy for the line item. 5. L Rei. Credit (Loan Reissue Credit): The amount credited for a policy to which a reissue credit is permitted. 6. Round up to nearest: This field rounds the loan or owner’s amounts up to a nearest amount (dollar, ten dollars, hundred dollars, etc.). The premium amounts for the policies are based on the rounded amount. 7. Minimum rate: This field may be used to assign a minimum rate, or the stepping system described below may be configured to generate this figure manually. If simultaneously issued policies are calculated (i.e. no fixed dollar amounts) this field may not be used. 8. Simultaneous rate: This field provides a place for a simultaneous fee, if simultaneously issued polices are not calculated but assigned a fixed dollar amount. 9. Buyer pays full loan policy premium. Seller pays total-Loan: After calculation of the premiums, the buyer is responsible for payment of the full Loan policy premium. The difference between the Owner’s premium and Loan premium is then paid by the seller. The instructions below give the “steps” used to calculate premium amounts. Each line is a separate step. The list is always sorted numerically. Adding a step at the bottom that contains an amount less than the previous amount will be moved to its proper place in the table.

Figure 2.21. Endorsement Fee Setup

Each Premium Table has its own endorsement configuration. Currently there are only three ways in which to calculate endorsements for each table: 1. Endorsement Section One (Basic Rate): The rate for these endorsements is a flat fee regardless of the policy or endorsement type. A default charge may also be entered. (Currently limited to 10 specific endorsement titles) 2. Endorsement Section Two (Split Rate): The rate for these endorsements may be different for 1-4 Family Residential properties v. greater than 1-4 Family or Commercial properties. A default charge may also be entered. (Currently limited to 10 specific endorsement titles) 3. Endorsement Section Three (Percentage Rate): The rate for these endorsements is calculated based on a percentage of the total policy premium (owner’s + loan). A minimum premium may be entered as well as a default charge. (Currently limited to 3 specific endorsement titles)

Page 20 Chapter 3: INTELLAclose Settings

This section reveals how to specify values for different variables and how to build and update the various system tables and lists found within the INTELLAclose application.

When INTELLAclose is installed for the first time, the system administrator will need to initialize some variables in INTELLAclose Settings section. Chapter 2 covers the Global configuration areas and this chapter covers the areas for INTELLAclose.

While in INTELLAclose System Setup, click the INTELLAclose icon. Theses screens begin at the Documents section. Click the Preferences line item on the left hand side to begin configuration.

Preferences The Preferences section allows managers to define the way that INTELLAclose operates. Detailed descriptions and functionality for each option are outlined below.

Figure 3.1. Endorsement Fee Setup

Auto Close INTELLAclose If Idle For More Than X Minutes When the desired number of minutes is entered in this field, INTELLAsuite applications will automatically shut down after the specified period of time. This option is generally used to make sure all instances of INTELLA are closed before performing overnight database maintenance, i.e. Reorganize.

Once the initial account information is entered, press the down arrow on the keyboard to ensure the information is saved.

Note: When implementing a new/modern software program it is ALWAYS preferable to open a new escrow account. The data entry, overhead, and confusion associated with using an existing account does not justify the perceived savings to not open a new escrow bank account to use with the new closing system.

WAN/ENTERPRISE INSTALLATIONS ONLY: A decision must be made regarding the nature of escrow account management for all multi-office WAN environments. The end-user must decide who will manage the accounts (a central location or each location individually). See the INTELLAescrow Task lists below to assist in this decision making process. In addition, some changes in internal procedures may be necessary to facilitate the smooth operation of Central Management of Escrow.

INTELLAescrow Tasks – LAN Customers ONE-TIME SETUP: Setup escrow account(s) in System Setup. Create check template in INTELLAclose and select in INTELLAclose-Tables-Default Values and also in System Setup.

Page 30 File Types

Figure 3.17. File Types Screen

The file types provided in the Setup Screen will be available in the Add screen. The file types are used for file numbering and are utilized in the beginning of the file number. The three numbering options available are:

FileType-YearMonth-Sequence (1st option): using this option will generate a file number as the following example demonstrates. If the file type selected when adding a file is ABC and the year is 2001, the month February, the resulting file number generated is ABC-200102-1. If the next file added were the same type, year, and month it would be ABC-200102-2. The sequence number will begin at 1 each month. The system will generate separate sequence numbers for each type.  File Type – Year Month – Sequence o MDA-200111-1 o FXP-200111-1 o Sequence numbering is unique for each file type and will be reset back to “1” with the changing of the months.

FileType-Sequence: Same as 1 above except that the starting sequence number for each type can be setup by the user. Each file type will have it’s own sequence.  File Type – Sequence o MDA-1 o FXP-1 o Sequence numbering is unique for each file type and will not be reset.

FileType-YearMonth-Sequence (2nd option): using this option will generate a file number as the following example demonstrates. If the file type selected when adding a file is ABC and the year is 2001, the month February, the resulting file number generated is ABC-200102-1. If the next file added were the same type, year, and month it would be ABC-200102-2. The sequence number will continue until manually reset. The system will generate separate sequence numbers for each type.  File Type – Year Month – Sequence o MDA-0111-1 o FXP-0111-1 o Sequence numbering is unique for each file type and will be reset back to “1” with the changing of the months.

AnyType-Sequence: This option is the same as 2 above, except there will be only one sequence, regardless of file type selected. A starting sequence number can be setup in the provided text box.  Any Type – Sequence o MDA-1 o FXP-2 o Sequence numbering is consecutive regardless of file type and will not be reset.

AnyType-YearMonth-Sequence: using this option will generate a file number as the following example demonstrates. If the file type selected when adding a file is ABC and the year is 2001, the month February, the resulting file number generated is ABC-200102-1. All file number will continue using the same sequence numbers. If the next file added were not the same type, year, and month it would be XYX-200102-2. The sequence number will continue until manually reset. The system will NOT generate separate sequence numbers for each type.  Any Type – Year Month – Sequence o MDA-0111-1 o FXP-0111-2 o Sequence numbering is consecutive regardless of file type and will not be reset. Templates

Figure 3.18. Templates Screen

File Templates are used to minimize data re-entry and streamline frequently used data. If the company performs work for a specific builder and subdivision for example, the file may be input as a File Template, also called Base File or Master File.

Default Values

Figure 3.21. Default Values

Program Labels There are four sections within the Program Labels tab of Default Values: Legal Information Screen, Recording Information Screen, Additional Contact Information Screen and Rolodex Custom Fields.

Legal Information Screen These are used to label the fields in the Legal Description. Generally, they will be standard real estate descriptions. However, in the case of timeshare, there may be a need to change them.

Recording Information Screen There are 12 user definable fields in the Recording Information Page. The labels for these fields are configured here.

Additional Contact Information Screen There are 5 additional “Contact” screens in INTELLAclose Order Entry (Additional Contacts). The labels for these screens are configured here.

Rolodex Custom Fields There are 4 customizable fields in INTELLAcontacts or “Rolodex.” The labels for these fields are configured here.

Page 34 Default Legal

Figure 3,22. Default Legal

Two default legal descriptions may be pre-defined in Default Values. These defaults utilize the Subdivision, Lot, Block, Book, Page, County and State of the property to generate a “standardized” legal description for legal and title documents. If the state in which you are doing business requires the use of user-defined fields in addition to those pre-defined here, the user will have to use INTELLAclause to generate legal descriptions. For now, this document will assume you are able to use the standard variables named above.

Being that there are two default legal descriptions allowed, it is most beneficial to choose the two most standard legal descriptions. For instance, if your legal descriptions are commonly divided between lots with blocks and lots without, create one with and one without. Use the Insert Merge Field at the top of each section to add fields to the legal description.

These default legal descriptions may be selected during the Order Entry process from the Legal Description section.

To create a default legal:

1. Click in the Default Legal 1 box. 2. Begin typing the desired text for the legal description. 3. When a field is desired, click the Insert Merge Field button. Double-click the desired field to add it to the legal description. 4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 until the legal description is complete. 5. If more than one “standard” legal description is used in your area, click in the Legal Description 2 section. 6. User may copy and paste the first legal and modify it or user may, using steps 2 and 3, generate a totally different legal description.

The Short Legal may also be used to generate a “short legal” to be used with the HUD-1 Settlement Statement or other documents. This legal description may include the lot, subdivision name, plat book, page and county or any other fields that might be desired. Follow steps 2 and 3 above to generate a short legal default.

Default Fields

The Document Setup portion of this System Administrator Guide is very important and will take the greatest amount of time. When moving from an older DOS based application environment, system documents may need to be converted to a Windows based word processor (i.e. Microsoft Word). If documents already exist within a Windows format, conversion to INTELLAclose is easier. The steps below offer concise instruction on the importing, or creation, of system documents in Microsoft Word.

If you have a state document package or desire custom documents, please contact TitleSoft for additional information. Documents are usually completed within 1-2 weeks provided they are in an acceptable Windows format. The cost is nominal to prepare your custom documents.

Underwriter document setup is located in the Document Setup portion of System Setup as many documents may be underwriter specific. Prior to beginning the creation of your documents, you should enter the information for each of your underwriters in this area.

Note: Before beginning the document creation process, it is best to identify 20-30 key documents required for production to jump- start the process. Additional documents may be created as required thereafter.

If the end-user receives Underwriter specific document packages from TitleSoft, do not enter the Underwriter information. The installation program provided will modify these as required.

Microsoft Word 97, 2000, XP (2002) are supported word processor versions. MS Word XP has recently been added to this list, but requires some modifications to documents to facilitate the merge. Note: Word 95 and Word Perfect support has been phased out.

Word Documents are template documents created by the end-user in MS Word (or WordPerfect documents which require conversion to MS Word PRIOR to configuring for merging) are formatted with merge fields available through the INTELLAsuite applications. The basic merge file “CLODATA” contains the most commonly used variables. The System Administrator Guide, available for download on the TitleSoft website, contains a list of all available system field variables. These variables may be added to the “CLODATA” merge file in INTELLAclose, Tables, Merge, by double-clicking the variables on the left hand side of the screen to add them to the file list on the right hand side.

Also, new merge files may be created for custom documents created by the end-user.

Follow the comprehensive instructions below for easy integration of your existing, or new, MS Word closing documents:

Once all desired fields have been selected, click the Exit button to complete the process. 6. The screen now appears as follows:

7. Fields will show up in the data entry screens in the same order in which they were created unless the user designates an “order” using this screen. To change the order of the fields attached to a screen, use the Order column. For each field c lick under the Order heading and type in the numbers to arrange the fields as desired. Multiple variables may be added to a screen and multiple screens may call on or use the same variables. The user may also “Order” the variables so they appear in a particular sequence. Using the Order column, enter numbers beginning with “1” to re-sequence the variables as desired.

Fields Default Screen The Fields Default Screen shows a listing of all fields that are present on the “Default” screen that appears during data entry for the User Defined Fields. Fields will show up in the data entry screens in the same order in which they were created unless the user designates an “order” using this screen. To change the order of the fields attached to a screen, use the Order column. For each field c lick under the Order heading and type in the numbers to arrange the fields as desired. Location/Screens In addition to the functionality previously outlined, when the installation is running INTELLAwan, particular screens may be assigned to specific locations for added flexibility. All screens are added automatically to the “Default Screens.” However, screens may also be removed from the system default and added to specific locations. There are two sections in Location/Screens: Screens per Location and Default Screens for all Locations.

To remove a screen from a location, click the Remove Screen button. 6. Click OK to confirm deletion. Once the screen modifications are completed, click the Lock and Update Server button to save the changes. Once completed, one of two programs must now be run. If a full reorganize cannot be run due to a ctive processing, the system administrator may alternatively run the following special system application from the INTELLA folder: IAC_UPD_USERVAR.EXE. This application will update all pertinent databases with the new screen information. For WAN locations, the system administrator must run the IAC_UPD_USERVAR.EXE application for each server at each location. This will copy all changes and prepare the screens for use. If the changes do not need to be updated immediately, the system administrator may wait until the nightly reorganize session, which will automatically update all server instances with the new screen information.

INTELLAcontacts The Rolodex button is located throughout the INTELLAsuite programs and opens the INTELLAcontacts program. This area of the program was designed to store information on the most frequently dealt with companies and individuals associated with production/closing activities. Utilizing this contact management feature will eliminate duplicate data entry of names, addresses and other contact information for these companies and/or individuals when used in multiple files. The program also allows the creation of groups, i.e. Realtors, Surveyors, Lenders, Brokers, Appraisers, Hazard Insurance Providers, Termite Inspection Companies, etc. to precisely locate contacts.

Whenever this icon is clicked, INTELLAclose displays the INTELLAcontacts screen (Figure 2.8):

Figure 5.1. The INTELLAcontacts screen

Adding New Groups and Companies A review of Figure 2.8 shows that there are a number of Groups (i.e., Appraisers, Banks, etc.). The “Bank” group has been selected and users can see that a number of individual banks have been added to the company list for that group.

To add a group:

The Clause Tool The Clause Icon gives the user entrance into the integrated INTELLAclause program within INTELLAclose. Like INTELLAclause, information is stored by group description, with each group containing individual clauses. Memo fields are used for data entry, allowing the user to build clauses several paragraphs in length. Within this working environment, INTELLAclause gives the user the ability to construct clauses that contain variables from the INTELLAclose database. When a clause containing variables from the general INTELLAclose database is used in a file, the “value” for that variable is seamlessly merged into the clause during the print operation.

As an example, a standard clause for a title commitment, schedule B(I)(2)(a) is:

Warranty deed from ______to ______.

The Clause section of INTELLAclose allows users to store this clause for use in every new file. By facilitating the merger of INTELLAclose data into the clause, it would be stored as follows:

Warranty deed from ~C_SCOMBNAME~ to ~B_BCOMBNAME~.

The INTELLAclose database variables “~C_SCOMBNAME~” and “~B_BCOMBNAME~” represent the seller identification and buyer identification, respectively. When printing the commitment while in “file 1,” the seller and buyer identification will be different than printing the same commitment while in “file 2.” Using this technique, the user can construct clauses, which always produce a merger of data from INTELLAclose that is case sensitive. In other words, the “value” of ~C_SCOMBNAME~ will change from file to file, but the merger variable ~C_SCOMBNAME~ always produces the seller information. This is similar to any other merge functions commonly used by word processing programs, where a template document is combined with a data document. The template remains the same while the data changes. An illustration of how this works will be provided in more detail on the following pages.

INTELLAclause also allows for the collective grouping of individual clauses in either a non-outline or outline format.

Pressing the F5 key on the keyboard will open the INTELLAclause program that appears as follows: Figure 5.5. The INTELLAclause screen

This program may be utilized with any Windows based application that allows the copying and pasting of data from the clipboard feature. Once the Select and Exit button is used, the data in the IAC Clipboard is copied to the clipboard and may be pasted anywhere.

The INTELLAclause Menu There are menu options for all INTELLAclause functions in the INTELLAclause Menu. In addition, many of the functions may also be accessed by utilizing function keys or combination keystrokes.

Adding New Clause Groups Adding new clause groups is accomplished in the group section (shown below) of Figure 2.29. The controls in this section should look familiar. They are nothing more than a common set of controls used to add, delete and modify the Group list box.

To start our example, Add “Com Sch b-2” as a group, and the result is:

A new clause group has successfully been added to the system. Using this group, users may add an unlimited number of clauses within that group. Use the DEL icon to remove a group PROVIDED THERE ARE NO INDIVIDUAL CLAUSES WITHIN THE GROUP. Next, we will look at adding and deleting single clauses from a group.

Adding New Clauses within a Group Adding new clauses within groups is accomplished in the title section (shown on next page) of Figure 2.29. Again, this section consists of a common set of controls users should be familiar with.

To add a new clause within a group, do the following: Page 54 1. Select the group to add a clause to. To continue our example, select “Com Sch b-2”

2. Add a new clause description. In this example, add “Standard Mortgage Exception” as a description of the new clause. This results in:

We are now ready to enter the text of the clause, including variables from INTELLAclose.

Note: If you will be using the Insert In Place Clause tool (Chapter 4, "Screen by Screen – Title Insurance Information") in Title Insurance Information in the INTELLAclose User’s Guide, clause descriptions should be short and contain no spaces. For instance, the description above might be shortened to: SME01.

Entering Text and INTELLAclose Merge Variables To enter the clause text (steps 1-3) and then the merger variables (steps 4-6), do the following:

1. Select the clause group and then the clause description you want to add text to. In our example, select “Com Sch b-2” as the clause group and “Standard Mortgage Exception” as the clause description.

2. Click the Clause window immediately below the Title section. This results in:

Note the cursor in the upper left-hand corner of the Clause window. This indicates where the next keystroke will appear.

3. Type the clause text in the clause window. To continue our example, type the following text:

Mortgage and note in the principal amount of $, dated given by to and recorded on in Official Records Book, Page, Public Records of County, Anystate.

And the result is: 4. Go to the Clause window where the clause has been entered and position the cursor in the clause at the point you require the variable appear. In our example, position the cursor between “by” and “to” as shown in above figure.

5. Select the category from the database list box. In our example, select the B_BUYER option. This displays all the variable fields within the B_BUYER database in the fields list box as shown below:

6. Find the variable desired and double click on that variable. This will automatically insert the variable into the clause at the point where you have previously positioned the cursor. To continue our example, double-click the B_BCOMBNAME option to insert the seller identification. Now the clause window should appear as:

Mortgage and note in the principal amount of $ , dated given by ~B_BCOMBNAME~ to and recorded on in Official Records Book, Page , Public Records of County, Anystate.

Repeat these steps to enter the other variables. Upon completion, the clause will appear as:

Mortgage and note in the principal amount of $~E_HUD202~, dated ~A_CLOSEDATEL~, given by ~B_BCOMBNAME~ to ~D_MORTGAGEE~ and recorded on ~G_MDATE~ in Official Records Book ~G_MORBOOK~, Page ~G_MORPAGE~, Public Records of ~I_DR4~ County, Anystate.

Example:

If Bob and Susan Smith borrow $75,000.00 from First National Bank, close on 10-10-95, and record on 10-15-95 in O.R. Book 1245, page 345, in Anycounty County, the clause will merge with the INTELLAclose variables to read:

Mortgage and note in the principal amount of $75,000.00, dated October 10, 1995, given by Bob and Susan Smith, Husband and Wife, to First National Bank and recorded on 10-15-1995 in Official Records Book 1245, Page 345, Public Records of Anycounty County, Anystate.

10. Text is typed into the field and is added to the clause when the window is closed. Users may click the Done button OR press the Enter key to complete the task.

Pasting Several Clauses to the INTELLAclose Clipboard INTELLAclause allows users to paste several clauses to the INTELLAclose clipboard in either a general format or an outline format. Before we begin this discussion, we should look at the end result desired.

Once users click the Select and Exit button, the data present in the IAC Clipboard is copied to the Windows Clipboard and may be pasted into any Windows area that will accept text. With this in mind, it is important to remember to paste the data to the location desired.

The following group of icons carries the paste function:

GENERAL PASTE OUTLINE PASTE

General paste will place the selected clause in the clipboard in non-outline form. Outline paste will either single indent or double indent depending on whether a numeral or letter is chosen. Using our sample clauses, for example, and assuming the margin of the document where the text will be placed is like the left margin of this paragraph, the following results apply:

GENERAL PASTE

This is sample clause one.

OUTLINE PASTE - NUMERIC SELECTION

1. This is sample clause one.

OUTLINE PASTE - ALPHA SELECTION

A. This is sample clause one.

Note: INTELLAclause will place all clauses in the INTELLAclose clipboard on the left-hand margin and that outlined clauses appear as follows: Page 58 1. This is sample clause one.

A. This is sample clause one.

When INTELLAclose detects an Alpha or Numeric character, followed by period, it will create the appropriate indentation so there is no need to set the indentations.

Note: When pasting items to INTELLAclose for use with merge documents, it is important to make sure that two (2) carriage returns are present between each clause. INTELLAclause will automatically place the correct spacing when clauses are pasted together in the IAC Clipboard. However, when pasting clauses to an INTELLAclose memo field, users must ensure that adequate spacing is present. If any new data is positioned at the end of the first data without proper spacing, the new data will be placed directly after the first. If proper spacing was maintained, then the paste will position the second clause below the first, with a blank line in between.

An example follows with two sample clauses, to include text after a paste operation is performed without maintaining proper spacing and the text after the paste operation when proper spacing is maintained.

SAMPLE CLAUSES This is Sample Clause One. This is Sample Clause Two.

PASTE RESULT WITHOUT PROPER SPACING This is Sample Clause One. This is Sample Clause Two.

PASTE RESULT WITH PROPER SPACING This is Sample Clause One.

This is Sample Clause Two. Chapter 6: WAN Deployment and Configuration TitleSoft’s INTELLAclose for Windows is configured with one-of-a-kind integrated-application communications software (“Middleware”), which allows licensed INTELLAwan customers to centrally manage numerous aspects of their Settlement and Title production activities over a Wide Area Network, including the Internet. Connectivity between the central office location file server (hosts the primary INTELLAclose database) and any remote office location(s) file server is managed via our advanced software technology transparently to the end-user community.

TitleSoft software does NOT require high-speed bandwidth and/or third-party remote hosting technology (i.e. Terminal Server or Citrix) to operate robustly and reliably. Any standard WAN TCP/IP connectivity and nominal bandwidth (i.e. 56KB) will provide the required connectivity for the Enterprise. Small remote offices or floating personnel may even use standard dial-up ISP connectivity to sync in to the main location. The main office location and remote location(s) are always performing work real-time on their respective local area network – providing independent and reliable mission-critical processing with full redundancy. Sophisticated system services logging ensures that anytime file additions and/or changes occur, they will be centrally tracked and managed for the Enterprise.

TitleSoft software requires a TCP/IP connection (via WAN/Internet) exist between the central file server (Master INTELLAclose database) and a remote office/location to perform the following tasks:

1. To create a new file (order) from a remote location in INTELLAclose. 2. To update additions and/or changes made to an INTELLAclose file in central office/location and view in a remote office/location. 3. To update additions and/or changes made to an INTELLAclose file in a remote office/location and view in the central office/location

Note: If a WAN/Internet connection is NOT present, the system will not allow a new file to be entered into production system from a remote office/location. Users may benefit from having several dummy files on the system for use if new files are required and network connectivity is not available for any reason (i.e. service interruption).

Minimum infrastructure required for WAN/Internet connectivity for INTELLA software operation:

1. Central office/location must have a static and accessible IP address, default port # is 80801. Note: The port number may be changed in System Setup if required. 2. Remote office/locations, client workstations and server (LAN) must have access to central office/location via at least 56KB of TCP/IP based bandwidth from a WAN, ISP, DSL, T1, etc.

A) TO SHARE MASTER DOCUMENTS AND USER TABLES GENERATED AT THE CENTRAL OFFICE LOCATION THE SYSTEM ADMINISTRATOR MUST COMPLETE THE FOLLOWING STEPS. The following files must be copied from the central office SERVER (LOCATED IN THE INTELLA FOLDER) to all remote office LAN SERVERS. 1. Check Templates: RPSTXY.DBF and RPSTXY.MDX. 2. Merge Files: RPSMERGE.DBF, RPSMERGE.MDX, RPSMFLD.DBF, and RPSMFLD.MDX. 3. Contacts/Rolodex: RPSCOM.DBF, RPSCOM.MDX, RPSGRP.DBF and RPSGRP.MDX. 4. Word Documents: Copy content of the MSWORD folder located in the INTELLA folder where the software was installed. If any user-defined variables have been used in these documents the user-defined variable tables must be copied as well (see step 2). You also need to copy the following files located in the DOC folder located in the INTELLA folder: IACDOC.DBF, IACDOC.MDX, IACDOCGR.DBF AND IACDOCGR.MDX. 5. Word Perfect Documents: Same procedure as Word, copy content of the WINWP folder instead of MSWORD. 6. Doc Packs: RPSQUE.DBF, RPSQUE.MDX and RPSQUEG.DBF. 7. State/County Recording Charges: RPSSTATE.DBF, RPSSTATE.MDX, RPSCOUNT.DBF, and RPSCOUNT.MDX, 8. Underwriter Premium Tables: IACPRATE.DBF, IACPRATE.MDX, IACPTAB.DBF, and IACPTAB.MDX. 9. User Defined Variables: User Defined Variables do not require the copying of tables. Use the following steps to copy these tables to remote locations: a. UDV’s must be created at the central location. b. Each remote location must be configured to connect to the central location. c. From each remote location, in the User Defined Variables section in System Setup, click the Get Fields from Remote Server button to copy all fields and their definitions from the central location. Note: These steps may be utilized whenever changes are made to the User Defined Variables at the central location.

B) ESCROW ACCOUNT MANAGEMENT- FOR CENTRAL MANAGEMENT OF ESCROW ACCOUNTS, COMPLETE THE FOLLOWING STEPS: 1. System Setup – Central Location: Each escrow account must be setup in the MAIN escrow location. This location does not have to be the remote server. If desired, it may be any office on the WAN. 2. System Setup – Individual Locations: Each location must have its escrow account set up. 3. INTELLAescrow – Individual Locations: Each physical office/location must deliver, on a daily basis, all files to be closed and all deposits to be posted. 4. INTELLAescrow – Central Location: All files for all physical office/locations must be closed to escrow and all deposits posted.

The index generally used to link these case record databases together “UPPER(CASELINK+LOCCODE),” is generated and/or modified in the Relation menu.

Reports included with INTELLAclose:

1. From the main INTELLAclose window, click the Reports icon. 2. The IACFinance Reports window appears:

Figure 7.2. IACFinance Reports Screen

There are three sections that may be modified to generate specific reports. Reports may be generated based on a selected time period and compared to another time period. Additionally, reports may be generated on the status of the individual files (Closed, Open, All, Invoiced). Location Code, Rep Code, and Company ID are other variables that may be used. Reports maybe printed in Portrait or Landscape layout via the Landscape text box in the lower section of the window. Chapter 8: Data File Maintenance INTELLAfiles is a utility program provided to compress and re-index all INTELLAsuite application/system database files. It may also be used to repair physically damaged system files as required. Reorganize Click the Reorganize button to open the Reorganize program.

Figure 8.1. The INTELLAfiles screen

Click Reorganize to re-index and compress system database files.

Fix File If an error message is displayed when running Reorganize, this means the file(s) noted are damaged and cannot be reorganized. Note the file name(s) and run Rebuild File when Reorganize is completed. 1. Select the file(s), which contain errors after completing Reorganize. 2. Click the Rebuild File button to rebuild the damaged file. 3. If the file does not complete the Rebuild process successfully, click the Fix File button. Note: All system uses must be logged off before Reorganize or Rebuild is run. Re-index Only Re-index performs the same function as Reorganize except that data compression is not done. Only the indexes are rebuilt.

Zip Files To zip all database files for backup purposes, click the Zip Files icon. The administrator may also select individual files to zip by clicking the check box next to the desired files.

View Log There may be an occasion need to determine the status of a particular reorganization. If a user is in the system when a reorganize is run, or if there is an error reported, this log file will help the system administrator pinpoint the nature of the problem so it may be corrected.

Page 64 Check Boxes There are three check boxes incorporated into Reorganize: Fast, No Backup, and Auto Update.

The Fast check box will allow the system administrator to run a streamlined, faster reorganize. However, this feature only re-indexes files. It does not perform any other maintenance operations on the databases. When errors occur, this may not always fix the problem. If it does not fix the problem, a full reorganize must be run.

The No Backup check box will allow a full reorganize to be run, but it does not make a backup copy of the database files, as does a full reorganize. If the system administrator is certain that a recent backup of the data exists and is not required, this may shorten the length of time it takes to run a full reorganize.

The Auto Update check box will connect to the TitleSoft website and automatically download updated application files. If this check box is used, any new or changed applications will automatically be downloaded to the INTELLA folder and reorganize will be run after.

Options and Sending Emails The system administrator may configure the Reorganize program to send an email report after the completion of an automated reorganize function. To configure this feature:

1. Click the Options button to open the Options window. 2. Enter the email address for delivery and the DNS Server IP address. For additional help with this system feature, contact Titlesoft technical support. 3. The auto-reorganize function may also be configured from this screen by entering the daily time to run.

Figure 8.2. The INTELLAfiles Options screen

For advanced configuration please contact a Technical Support representative.

Auto-Reorganize The system administrator may wish to configure the system to reorganize database files/records automatically. Utilizing a preferred method of “task scheduling,” the following command line may be used:

X:\INTELLA\IACFILES.exe AUTO

Where X is the drive letter where the INTELLA folder is located. Note: AUTO must be capitalized for the Auto-Reorganize feature to work properly. For more information on this valuable system administration feature, please contact TitleSoft technical support. Note: See Options and Sending Emails section for an alternative way to configure an automatic reorganize. Index of Figures
