Overview
After opening a contract, you land on the contract details page. This page is organised into six tabs (Details, Documents, Tasks, Approvals, Obligations, and Courier) along with an Actions menu and an Ask AI button on the top right. Each section gives you specific tools to manage the contract through its lifecycle.
Details
The Details tab is the main view of the contract. It is divided into the following subsections:
Contract Timeline
Just below the contract name, a timeline bar shows the number of days the contract has spent at each stage of its lifecycle. Completed stages are highlighted, while upcoming stages remain greyed out. This gives you a quick visual overview of how long the contract has been in progress and which stage it is currently at.
Template Details
Displays all the meta fields filled in during contract initiation, such as party names, signatory details, addresses, execution date, and expiry date. The fields shown here vary depending on the contract type and the template used. Click the Edit button within this section to modify any of these fields.
Contract Details
Shows system-level information about the contract, including:
Unique ID: the auto-generated identifier for the contract
Contract ID: the internal contract reference
Contract Type ID
Expiry Date
Entity and Contract Type
Template Name
Created and Last Modified dates
First Requester
This section also displays the e-signing status of the contract, including the signer details, signing validity, and sign method (e.g. Virtual Sign).
Notes
The right-hand panel on the Details tab includes a Notes section where you can take notes directly on the contract page. Notes support basic formatting including bold, italic, underline, and bullet points. You can also tag teammates using @name.

Actions Menu
The three-dot menu (⋮) on the top right of the contract page opens the Actions panel. It contains the following options:
Change Stage
Manually move the contract to a different stage (e.g. Internal Review, Negotiation, Sent for E-sign, Executed, Expired). Note: once a stage is changed, it cannot be reverted to a previous stage.
Edit Followers
View and manage the followers assigned to the contract. Followers receive notifications about contract activity. You can add or remove followers as needed.
Add Labels

The documents table shows the File Name, Description, Uploaded By, Uploaded On, Status (e.g. E-Signing Pending, N/A), and available Key Actions for each file.

Approvals
The Approvals tab manages the approval workflows associated with the contract. If no workflow has been configured on the template, the tab will show No Workflow Found.
There are three types of approval workflows, accessible as tabs within this section:
Editor Approval Workflow
This workflow ensures the contract content is reviewed and approved before it moves forward. When active, it displays:

Initiated By and Created By details are shown at the top of the Approval List
Remind: a button available for pending approvers to send them a reminder notification
Approval Levels: shows the approval hierarchy (e.g. Level - 1, Level - 2, Level - 3) with an All or Either setting per level
Block Edit Contract until Approvals Workflow is completed: a toggle that prevents edits to the contract until all approvals are obtained

Approval List: shows each approver, their level, sent date, approved date, current status, and available actions

Block E-Signing until Approvals Workflow is completed: a toggle that prevents the contract from being sent for e-signing until all approvals are obtained
Click Start Approval Workflow to notify the designated approvers to begin the process.
