In the world of tech innovation, we here at SkySlope are always trying to make your job easier. Quick Audit is streamlined file review technology that allows admins to review files and documents as swiftly as possible. Built right into the Docs to Review section, Quick Audit sends you right into files with pending documents, lets you review them at lightning speed, and gets you on your way. Check it out!

In this article, we'll review:

• Introducing Smart Assist, your AI-powered auditing assistant
• Using Quick Audit
• Additional Actions in Quick Audit

Introducing Smart Assist 

We’re excited to introduce Smart Assist, a powerful new enhancement to Quick Audit. Smart Assist uses AI to scan documents and check for all required signatures and initials, to save you time. It will automatically suggest a status of Cleared if everything looks good. It’s another way we’re helping you review files faster and more accurately.

How Smart Assist Works

Smart Assist will scan submitted documents to ensure the necessary signatures and initials are on the document and in the correct location. 

If the document appears to have all signatures and initials in place, you will see a Cleared status.

Important Details About Smart Assist

Scanning for Signatures: Smart Assist will utilize the SkySlope property details to determine the number of signatures and initials that should be present on the document. More specifically, if your SkySlope property file has one Seller and two Buyer contacts, Smart Assist will check the document for one set of Seller signatures/initials and two sets of Buyer signatures/initials. Please ensure your property contacts are recorded correctly to ensure proper functionality. 

Availability: Smart Assist is just getting started, and there’s more to come. It's currently available to all Admins and Auditors in Arizona, California, Colorado, Indiana, New Mexico, Oregon, and Texas, covering the top 100 real estate forms, and we hope to broaden its availability soon!

Using Quick Audit

We created Quick Audit to help Auditors and Brokers spend less time at their screens and more time supporting their teams. Keep reading to learn all the ins and outs of Quick Audit.

Reviewing Documents in Quick Audit

When you first land in Quick Audit, you'll automatically be taken into the auditing workflow. You will see the Checklist and submitted documents for a property file in SkySlope. 

Using the Property Bar

You can use the Property Bar across the top of Quick Audit to navigate from one file to the next and to filter the types of files you're reviewing. 

• Use the < and > arrows to move through the list of files with pending documents, one file at a time. 
• Use the property address drop-down menu to select a specific file to review. 
• Use the Transactions | Listings | Both filter to determine which types of files to review.

Reviewing Documents

Once you've located the file and are ready to review it, use the tips below to navigate through Quick Audit like a pro.

1. You will automatically be taken to the first Pending Checklist item.
   
2. Use the Document Preview Window to complete your compliance review, checking the document for all essential names, dates, signatures, and initials.
   — When reviewing your documents, you might get some assistance from Smart Assist! If you see a Cleared status, that means Smart Assist has completed a scan and checked to see whether or not all signatures are in place. Smart Assist will also highlight signatures and initials with a green box, making it easier to review documentst and move onto the next file. Learn more about Smart Assist. 
3. If the document appears to be complete, click Accept.
   If the document is missing something or requires additional attention, click Reject. Then leave a comment explaining to the Agent what needs to be corrected. Click Save to save your comment.
   — Power Tip: Hitting the Enter key when typing a rejection comment saves the comment and advances the auditor to the next pending item.
4. After clicking Accept or Reject on a document, you will be automatically guided to the following Pending document! Complete your compliance review for that document, the following document, and so on.
