QLD – new LEAP Document Manager forms

During the last quarter of FY19, the LEAP Content team have been working on a project to change the functionality behind our forms to use a Word App entitled LEAP Document Manager “LDM”.

This change is necessary to make our forms compatible with Word Online.  Over the next few months you will see this functionality become more frequently used in our forms.

Rest assured, from a user perspective, information contained within your LEAP Matter will still auto-populate directly into the LDM form, however, the functionality will be slightly different.  From a user perspective there will be –

  • No more pop up dialogs to answer questions.
  • Questions/information required (where relevant) will be contained in the LDM which is displayed in a side panel on the righthand side of your documents.

As we transition to the new LDM forms, the current versions will remain in LEAP for approximately one month for your use.  Therefore, each version of the form will have a separate precedent code, with the suffix of “LDM” in the form name.  We will notify you further when the current forms are to be deleted and the LDM versions will remain.

Please see the LEAP Community articles on ‘Using the LEAP Document Manager‘ and ‘Adding the ‘LEAP Document Manager to Word‘ .

This release of the new LDM forms include:

Area of Law Precedent Name Precedent Code
Supreme Court Litigation Affidavit_LDM LL-QLD-SCC-25
Care & Protection and Adoption Affidavit_LDM LL-QLD-CHC-10

This new functionality will make working with the forms easier from a user perspective.  We are happy to hear your comments regarding this new functionality, please provide any feedback here.
