A subscription document template is a PDF document that will be used to add input fields that will be mapped to the Onboarding data model, creating an electronic version of your subscription document. The document mapping allows investors to fill in their details through user-friendly UI screens, which will be applied to the subscription document. The subscription document is the contract that must be signed and countersigned when Onboarding is completed.
You can upload and map more than one subscription document for a single fund. This is useful when you want to distribute different versions of the subscription document to different subsets of investors.
