Where does the client data within the Foundational Planning tool come from?

• A. Data previously entered into Facts, through the Profile section under Current Situation, or through the client website will automatically transfer into the tool
• B. Data imported from tax returns only
• C. Data manually re-entered each session
• D. Data from external vendors only

Answer: (A)

The data in the Foundational Planning tool is pulled automatically from client information already captured in internal records—facts entered in the Facts area, the Profile section under Current Situation, and data provided through the client website. This automatic transfer keeps planning details up to date without duplicating entry and ensures consistency across sessions, using information the advisor has already collected. Tax returns may be used for reference, but they are not the sole source for the tool. It’s not about re-entering data manually each session, nor is it limited to data from external vendors only.
