Client Onboarding for CPA Firm Administrators with Practice CS

Run client onboarding on autopilot inside Practice CS.

Practice CS CPA Firm Administrator Public Accounting Ops

The Problem

Onboarding a new Public Accounting Ops client means chasing prior-year returns, engagement letters, and a dozen document requests — and every delay pushes the first billable task further out.

What We Build in Practice CS

AI drafts the engagement letter, generates a tailored document-request list for the client's Public Accounting Ops profile, chases missing items across email and Canopy, and hands the partner a ready-to-work file — first billable task starts in 3 days, not 3 weeks. Purpose-built for teams running Practice CS — uses the native API or agent integration so nothing leaves the system of record.

Practice CS Integration Approach

1

Audit your Practice CS configuration

We map the specific Practice CS objects, custom fields, and workflows the automation needs to touch for your public accounting ops practice.

2

Build on the Practice CS API or agent

Integration happens inside Practice CS — no data leaves the system, no parallel tool for your team to learn, no license changes.

3

Human-in-the-loop handoff

Every automation routes exceptions back to a human in Practice CS with enough context to act — AI handles the 80%, your team owns the judgment calls.

Frequently asked
