Re Line 1

Open the matter.
Make sure you're on the Details & Correspondence tab.
Click Matter Details.
Click the Matter Title tab.
If the Use Default checkbox is ticked, the Re Line will be automatically populated based on the Matter Type.
If you want to manually enter what will appear in the Re Line or subject line, untick the Use Default checkbox and enter:
1. what you want to appear in Re Line 1 and the subject line of an email, for clients in the Letters to Client box and;
2. what you want to appear in Re Line 1 and the subject line of an email, to all other parties in the Letters to all Other Parties box.

Once these fields have been completed the Re Line and subject line will be populated.

Re Line 2

Re Line 2 within a Word Document will be populated based on the specific Matter Type. For example, in a Conveyancing matter, the property address will be populated in Re Line 2.

If Re Lines do not generate as expected in your documents, please perform an Automation Repair. Additionally, you may need to remove the Re Line 2 field in the document if you only want the Re Line 1 field to appear. If you experience issues with the default Re Lines, you may be able to resolve the issue by unticking and reticking the "Use default" option in the Matter Details window.
