Finmo has introduced a new document renaming feature that allows users to rename files directly within the platform.

Documents uploaded to Finmo often come with unclear or non-descriptive names, such as scan001.pdf. This requires brokers to:

  • Open each document to determine its content

  • Manually download and rename files

  • Re-upload renamed versions back into Finmo

This enhancement improves your team’s efficiency, streamlines your compliance process, and reduces the need to download and re-upload sensitive files.

1. Navigate to the "Documents" section of the deal and select the document request from your dashboard where a document has been uploaded

2. Click to Review the Document and open the document to verify its contents (if needed). This helps confirm what the document actually is before renaming.

3. Click on the"pencil" icon and type a more descriptive name (e.g., Condo Board Letter).

4. Rename the Document

5. Save Your Changes.

The updated file name will now appear as the document name.

Tip: The new file name cannot include these symbols: ! @ # $ % ^ & * or ( )

The new file name cannot include spaces, use _ to separate words
