Overview
A Stencil is a template of placeholder tiles representing assets, insurances, liabilities and incomes. Applying a stencil to a household cuts the time it takes for making maps. It allows you to show your clients what their peer group could potentially have, or can be used as hand-out fact finders for clients to overwrite the tiles with their own financial information. You may edit each financial live by clicking on a stencil tile, modifying the data and Saving the information. Stencil tiles appear grey and become colorized when saved to the map.
