This guide will provide details on the general navigation within LDA along with notification and support options.
Navigation
When you log in to your LDA account, you'll start at the dashboard, which is the home page of your account.
If you wish to return to the dashboard anytime, click the LDA logo.
Here are the main options you should focus on as a new user of LDA;
1. Add New Case
This section is the starting point for designing a presentation in LDA. In Add New Case, you can create a new client to work with or search for a client in your database.
Click here to learn more about creating your first case!
2. Manage Cases
This section will act as your file folder for all your presentations. Find cases you or LDA designs when an inforce policy opportunity is detected, and search for sample cases, or cases shared with you by a colleague or support staff with your MGA.
When using the manage cases page, the presentation will show the most recently created/modified report at the top and the older ones below.
To access one of these cases, select the view icon on the left-hand side.
Each header is sortable and has a search bar directly below it to find a specific client or case.
The Policy Opportunity Trigger is where you can find cases generated automatically by LDA when an opportunity is identified for an existing policyholder. You can sort through the types of opportunity reports by selecting the dropdown menu.
3. Manage Clients
Here is where you'll find all clients/prospects you've created or that have been uploaded by the LDA team to your account (learn more about this here). Search for a specific client, policy, opportunity and more.

Each of the listed options is available on any page with the icons on the left side of the page.
The last option takes you back to the last case you were working on. We recommend using this to quickly resume working on your case.
TIP: Adjust your internet browser zoom settings to 67-80% for the best viewing experience when using LDA. This won't adjust the zoom setting for other websites.
You can find the manage cases option and manage client option at the tool bar at the top of the page.
Other Areas of Importance
At the top of the page, you'll see an area that says welcome and your name. When hovering your cursor over this section, a dropdown menu will appear.
My Account is where you can change your password, set-up E-App integration with Empire Life's Fast and Full program, and get the code for website to set-up the Embedded Needs Analysis. Click here to learn more.
