Overview
Background
End-users belong to organizations that compete in industries such as Computer Software, Insurance, and Financial Services. We are currently tracking the industry in HubSpot via ZoomInfo integration. In addition, we have historical information as to which Authority Documents customers are adding to Shared Lists and creating Builds for. These lists and builds indicate that those Authority Documents are important to those customers in their compliance efforts.
We ought to be able to leverage the industry information as the historical AD usage for other customers to recommend a set of Authority Documents to customers.
This PRD solely pertains to providing a report of recommended Authority Documents to the end-user based upon their identification of Industry, Affiliations, and State-agency. The predecessor PRD Self-Identification - Phase 1 addresses how the user confirms their Industry, Affiliations, and State-agency.
Objective
Provide additional context and explain how this product fits into UC’s strategic goals and initiatives and why we are building it.

Use Cases
Happy Day Scenarios
This is the “happy path” that includes the beginning to end steps the customer/user takes to be successfulUser chooses that they would like to receive a report of recommended authority documents and they subsequently receive an email with a PDF attachment of recommended authority documents.
Rainy Day Scenarios
Here is where you describe what to do when things go wrong (e.g., user closes the browser, API doesn’t return results …)The user’s email is out of date or wrong and they never receive the email.
The industry the user confirmed has no or minimal list of ADs thus adding little value.
The industry the user confirmed has a long list of ADs requiring the user to filter through the list to confirm value.

Ensure state-agency identification is populated in HubSpot which will feed into the reporting engine. Option 2: create table/form … outside of CCH to allow supper admins to specify supported state-agencies and their related ADs. Option 3: ? | |
Within CCH, provide a means for the user to ask for AD recommendations (only if they have filled out Industry other than “Other” and/or specified some Associations). | P1 | Not Started | ||
