ALF - Corporate Records and Business Law
ALF is a document generation software used by Corporate Records and Business Law
The ALF software is usually installed for the Corporate Records Team, so it is good to check with the user, Bernadette Kilfoy, or Heather Medeiros if the app needs to be installed.
