Best Practices

  • Name files as: VendorName_ContractType_Year.pdf
  • Password-protect sensitive contracts using PDF4u Protect PDF
  • Keep signed and unsigned versions in separate folders
  • Add renewal dates to your calendar immediately

Expiry Tracking

Set recurring calendar reminders 60 and 30 days before each contract expiry date. Never let a critical agreement auto-expire.
