Osprey Deal Room

If you utilise the Osprey Web Portal facility the Deal Room is available within a client’s matter history and within the Web Portal

What is the Deal Room?

The Deal Room contains documents from the Osprey matter history. These documents have been published to the web portal and used collaboratively by the published clients and their associates. One example of this might be for negotiating contracts. Not all documents from Osprey matter history are visible in the Web Portal Deal Room View, only those published from Deal Room.

To amend an access template navigate to:

Supervisor > System Setup > Users > Access Templates
