Legal

Contract Manager / in-house counsel. Owns the ClauseLibrary content and version curation, the ContractTemplates catalog content, runs legal review on every Contract that hits PendingLegalReview (and on every modified clause flagged RequiresLegalOnEdit), is the named first step of every ApprovalChain that includes Legal, and approves or counter-proposes redlines.

Sales Manager

Line sales manager. Reviews own team's Contracts, expedites approvals (can be the SalesManager step in an ApprovalChain for own team's contracts), supports the Sales Rep through redlines, and gets visibility into the team's renewal pipeline.

My Contracts In ApprovalPendingLegalReview
Contract NumberTitleAccountStatus
Pending Approval

Sales Rep

Initiates Contracts (typically via contract-from-quote from an accepted Quote in CPQ, occasionally from scratch off a template), drafts and redlines own Contracts, walks them through approval and e-sign, and owns the Active contract through its term and into renewal.

My Pending Approval StepsPending
Contract Contract NumberContract TitleContract AccountContract Contract Value

Approver

A named approver inside an ApprovalChain — typically VP Sales, CFO, or CEO; sometimes Procurement on vendor-side contracts. Reads the Contract in scope, decides Approve / Reject with a DecisionRationale, and the chain advances.

Contracts Expiring This QuarterActive
Contract NumberAccountContract ValueExpiration Date

Viewer

Read-only role for Finance (reads ContractValue, EffectiveDate, ExpirationDate, RenewalDate, BillingCadence for revenue recognition planning), Procurement (reads vendor-side Contracts only — those where the Account is flagged as Vendor in CRM, scoped accordingly), and exec / board read. Note: the Counterparty Signer (the external person executing the contract) is not a system role — authentication and signature capture are handled by the e-sign provider; this app only stores the recipient identity in ESignRecipients.

Operational visibility

Reports and dashboards

Explore what each report measures and the records behind it.

  • Contract Pipeline & Status Funnel

    Count and aggregate ContractValue by Status × ContractType × Account-Owner. Drills from total contracts down to the individual Contract. Surfaces stuck contracts (days in Status > threshold) and the conversion rate from Draft through Active. The CRO and General Counsel's primary weekly view.

  • Time-To-Sign Cycle

    Days from Contracts.CreatedAt to ExecutedDate, broken down by ContractType, Owner, Template, and ContractValue band. Includes time-in-stage averages (Draft, InternalReview, PendingLegalReview, PendingApproval, PendingSignature) so the bottleneck stage is visible. Used by Legal and Sales Ops to tighten cycle time.

  • Approval Cycle SLA

    Per ApprovalSteps row: hours from Status: Pending to Status: Approved / Rejected, vs. SLAHours target. Aggregated by ApproverRole and Approver. Highlights specific approvers (CFO, CEO) whose turnaround is the chokepoint.

  • Renewal Pipeline & At-Risk

    Renewals by Status × ScheduledRenewalDate quarter × Account-Owner. Total renewal value upcoming in next 30 / 60 / 90 / 180 days. Renewals trending Lost (Negotiating > 30 days, no movement) flagged for executive escalation. The renewal motion's command center.

  • Win/Loss on Renewals

    Closed Renewals split by Status (Renewed vs. Lost), with LostReason distribution, by AccountOwner, ContractType, and BillingCadence. Net retention rate (sum Renewed RenewalValue / sum Original ContractValue at risk in period).

  • Obligation Compliance

    ContractObligations by Status (Open, InProgress, Completed, Overdue, Waived) × ObligationType × Owner. Overdue rate per Owner, mean days overdue, and the at-risk SLA list. Used by Legal and Customer Success to keep the company in compliance with its signed commitments.

  • Clause-Negotiation Heatmap

    Per ClauseLibrary entry: count of Contracts where the clause was Modified, count of Redlines opened against it, average days to resolve Redlines on it, and split by ProposedBy (InternalSales / InternalLegal / Counterparty). Surfaces which standard clauses are getting redlined every time (signal that the standard wording needs revision) and which Sales Reps redline the most (coaching signal).

Controls and automation

System checks

contract-from-quote — appEventTrigger on Quotes (CPQ) Status: Accepted → creates Contracts row with Template auto-selected by Quote attributes, ContractParties pre-seeded, TemplateVariables resolved.

clause-library-application — appEventTrigger on Contracts.record.created → bulk-creates ContractClauses per ClauseLibrary defaults for the contract type.

redline-comparison — code.executor diffs current ContractClauses text against the most recent ContractVersions snapshot, creates Redlines rows per change, freezes a new ContractVersions row on Status transitions.

legal-review-routing — appEventTrigger on Contracts.record.updated (Status: → PendingLegalReview, or any clause Modified AND RequiresLegalOnEdit) → emails Legal queue with Contract link and redline summary.

approval-chain-routing — appEventTrigger on ApprovalSteps.record.updated (Status changes) → advances the next sequential step to Pending and emails the next Approver per the snapshotted ApprovalChain; on chain completion flips parent Contracts.Status: → Approved.

esign-envelope-create — appEventTrigger on Contracts.record.updated (Status: → Approved) → calls e-sign provider API, creates ESignEnvelopes with ProviderEnvelopeID, bulk-creates ESignRecipients from ContractParties, flips Contracts.Status to PendingSignature.

esign-status-webhook — webhookTrigger from e-sign provider (DocuSign / Adobe Sign / Dropbox Sign) → looks up ESignEnvelopes.ProviderEnvelopeID, updates envelope + recipient Status. Idempotency guard: dedupes on ProviderEnvelopeID + EventType + Timestamp so re-delivered webhooks do not double-process.

contract-fully-executed — appEventTrigger on ESignEnvelopes.record.updated (Status: Completed) → flips Contracts.Status: → Active, stamps ExecutedDate, copies SignedPDFURL, creates a Renewals row, emails the executed packet to AccountOwner + Sales Rep + Counterparty.

renewal-reminder — scheduleTrigger daily 06:00 → finds Active contracts where RenewalDate <= today + 90 / 60 / 30 days, advances Renewals to Notified, emails AccountOwner + Sales Manager + Counterparty with the renewal packet.

obligation-tracker — scheduleTrigger daily 07:00 → sends Owner reminders T-14 days on Open ContractObligations, escalates to Owner + Sales Manager + flips Status to Overdue on past-due, plus runs the expiry-on-no-action pass that flips Contracts.Status: Active → Expired for any contract where RenewalDate < today AND no Renewals row in Negotiating / Renewed / Lost.
