What this says
Current to 11 Oct 26Onboarding call on 9 Jul 2025. Copperlane has credentials ready, the customer runs standard systems, and a mapping call is set for Monday. Go-live is planned for Wednesday week if the mapping is confirmed.
What happened: Hamza Akhtar confirmed credentials, agreed a mapping document by end of week and a Monday call. Ian Brearley said he would send the credentials straight after the call.
Customer view: Rebecca Nuttall pressed on the go-live date and was told Wednesday week if Monday's mapping is good. Ian described the systems as standard, which Hamza said should make mapping clean.
Commercial: Hamza asked the customer to think about what questions to ask the brain, which will shape early value. The call does not show the tier, the order form or any price.
Watch: The Snowflake admin needs to be told and may need to create a few schemas. The call does not show who that person is.

Transcript
Hamza Akhtar NoneHi Ian, Rebecca. Good afternoon.
Rebecca Nuttall NoneAfternoon, Hamza. Got a few minutes?- Hamza Akhtar NoneYeah, got you for the next hour. So, credentials. Do we have them?
Ian Brearley NoneWe do, yes. I've got them in my email. I was going to send them to you this afternoon.- Hamza Akhtar NoneBrilliant. Can you forward them now? That way I can start testing tonight, and I'll have a mapping doc ready for you by, let me think, end of this week. Monday call?
- Rebecca Nuttall NoneMonday works for us.
- Ian Brearley NoneYeah, I'll send them right after this call.
- Hamza Akhtar NoneGood. One thing to flag, the CRM connection might need a bit of back-and-forth. I want to make sure we're pulling the right objects. What systems are you on, out of interest?
- Ian Brearley NoneWe use the standard package for everything really. CRM's the standard, call recorder's the standard, accounting system's the one everyone uses.
- Hamza Akhtar NoneThat's actually helpful because we've got templates for all of those. The mapping will probably be pretty clean. But I'll test the credentials first and let you know if there are any surprises.
- Rebecca Nuttall NoneGreat. And then we're on track for go-live when?
- Hamza Akhtar NoneIf we confirm the mapping Monday, and it's good, we go live Wednesday week. You'll see the first refresh land Thursday morning.
- Ian Brearley NoneNice. That's pretty quick.
- Hamza Akhtar NoneYeah, you've been efficient. That helps. One thing to think about for the Monday call, have a think about what questions you actually want to ask the brain. Payroll bureau, so maybe things like, I don't know, who did we invoice this week, what queries came in from which clients, that sort of thing. Helps me understand where the value is.
- Rebecca Nuttall NoneGood point. I'll have a think about that.
- Ian Brearley NoneYeah, I can jot a few down.
- Hamza Akhtar NonePerfect. And I'll send you the mapping doc before the call. Have a read, see if anything jumps out, and we can talk through it Monday. Fair?
- Rebecca Nuttall NoneFair. Anything else we should be doing?
- Hamza Akhtar NoneJust the credentials. Otherwise you're good. Oh, and when I go live, just make sure Snowflake's prepared: you don't need to do anything, but I'll need to set up a few objects in there, so the Snowflake admin needs to know it's coming.
- Ian Brearley NoneI'll coordinate that. Is there anything they need to do?
- Hamza Akhtar NoneThey might need to create a few schemas, but nothing major. I'll send you the spec next week and they can get ready.
- Rebecca Nuttall NoneGreat. Looking good then. Cheers, Hamza.
- Hamza Akhtar NoneCheers, both.
