PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Vestrek

A complex process.
A clearer path.

Coordinate estate records, information requests and outstanding tasks.

Estate Admin Workspace

What is Vestrek?

An estate administration workspace for coordinating assets, liabilities, documents, institutions, requests and the work still to be completed.

The challenge

Estate administration involves multiple institutions, asset records, valuations, payments and requests that may remain open for months.

The approach

The workspace focuses on records, responsibilities and progress across an estate. It supports the administrative process rather than providing legal advice.

  2. 02Schedules and requests prepared
  3. 03Responses update the checklist

The right forms for the work

Estate intake questionnaires, authority records, asset and liability schedules, valuation requests, institution correspondence, beneficiary information forms, payment approvals and completion checklists.

Generated from your approved templates, pre-filled from the record, sent for completion or signature, and stored with the work they belong to.

What runs automatically

  • Opening an estate generates the intake pack, initial tasks and information requests from the agreed administration workflow.
  • Assets, liabilities and institution responses populate schedules and update outstanding document lists.
  • Unanswered requests, valuation reviews and due dates trigger reminders and tasks for the estate coordinator.
  • Reviewed records prepare progress summaries, correspondence and completion packs while retaining the source for every figure.
How you stay in control

Authorised people check legal authority, estate figures, payments and distributions. Local statutory forms and legal documents require the appropriate approved process.

Choose the triggers, rules and approval points. Track actions, pause workflows and resolve exceptions without losing the history. Forms and automated steps are configured for your organisation, sector and location.

09

Automatic forms & document generation

  • Generate the required document pack for the agreed workflow from configurable, business-approved templates: estate intake questionnaires, authority records, asset and liability schedules, valuation requests, institution correspondence, beneficiary information forms, payment approvals and completion checklists.
  • Pre-fill known information, use conditional questions, request missing details and create branded documents without retyping records.
  • Collect signatures or acknowledgements where appropriate, issue reminders and keep the exact signed version with its related record, permissions and retention settings.
  • Let your team add or adapt templates as requirements change, with review and version control before a revised form is issued.
10

Connected workflow automation

  • Opening an estate generates the intake pack, initial tasks and information requests from the agreed administration workflow.
  • Assets, liabilities and institution responses populate schedules and update outstanding document lists.
  • Unanswered requests, valuation reviews and due dates trigger reminders and tasks for the estate coordinator.
  • Reviewed records prepare progress summaries, correspondence and completion packs while retaining the source for every figure.
11

Automation controls & review

  • Configure triggers, conditions, schedules, owners and approval steps; test the workflow before enabling it.
  • See every automated action, its source and outcome. Failed jobs, missing information and uncertain suggestions enter a visible exception queue with a responsible owner.
  • Pause or override a workflow with a reason; retry safely without creating duplicate records, repeated messages or duplicate charges.
  • Authorised people check legal authority, estate figures, payments and distributions. Local statutory forms and legal documents require the appropriate approved process.
