Using the CRM in Mercury Nexus

Learn how to use the CRM in Mercury Nexus to manage opportunities, tasks, documents and client information.

Updated this week

Use this guide to understand how the Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system in Mercury Nexus supports your day-to-day client management. You’ll learn where to find key features and how to manage opportunities, tasks, documents and client information in one place.

Important: We have standardised role terminology in Mercury Nexus. All roles previously labelled as Agent, Advisor, Loan Writer or Associate are now referred to as Broker. This ensures consistency across the platform.

Accessing the CRM

The CRM is your central workspace in Mercury Nexus. It allows you to:

  • Create and manage opportunities

  • Track tasks and reminders

  • Store and review client documents

  • Send questionnaires

  • Set up the Client Centre

Adding an opportunity

Create an opportunity to track a client’s loan scenario from enquiry through to settlement.

To add an opportunity:

  • Navigate to the CRM dashboard

  • Select Add opportunity

  • Enter the client details and loan scenario

  • Complete all required fields

  • Save the record

Each opportunity acts as the main record where documents, notes, tasks and questionnaires are stored.

Tip: Use clear opportunity names to make searching and reporting easier.

Adding and managing tasks

Tasks help you manage follow-ups and allocate responsibilities within your team.

You can:

  • Create individual tasks

  • Assign tasks to yourself or another broker

  • Set due dates and reminders

  • Create and apply task templates

Assigned and upcoming tasks appear in your task list and dashboard view.

Tip: Use task templates for repeatable workflows such as document follow-ups or lender submissions.

Adding attachments

Store all client documents directly within the relevant opportunity.

To add an attachment:

  • Open the opportunity record

  • Select Attachments

  • Upload the required file

  • Save

Keeping documents attached to the opportunity ensures a complete audit trail.

Important: Upload documents to the correct opportunity to maintain accurate compliance records.

Using the doc centre

The Doc Centre allows you to request and manage client documents securely.

You can:

  • Send document requests to clients

  • Track submitted documents

  • Review uploaded files

  • Approve or decline documents

Submitted documents are stored within the opportunity record.

If you see an error
Check the document format and file size. Unsupported file types may not upload successfully.

Using questionnaires

Questionnaires ensure you collect consistent and complete information from your clients.

You can:

  • Use pre-built templates

  • Create custom questionnaires

  • Send questionnaires to clients

  • Track completion status

Responses are saved against the opportunity.

Setting up the client centre

The Client Centre allows your clients to:

  • Enter personal information

  • Upload supporting documents

  • Complete questionnaires

To set up the Client Centre:

  • Open the opportunity

  • Enable the Client Centre
