Approval
The reviewed draft is approved to move forward.
5
External Negotiation
The counterparty reviews and negotiates terms through a shared link.
6
Final Approval
Both sides sign off on the negotiated terms.
7
Electronic Signature
All parties execute the agreement through VectorSign.
8
Contract Activation
The signed contract becomes active and enforceable.
9
Obligation & Renewal Tracking
Key dates and obligations are tracked automatically.

FAQ

Questions about this workflow

Can external counterparties negotiate without a VectorCLM account?

Negotiation happens through a shared link, so no login is required for the counterparty.

Does VectorCLM alert us before a contract needs renewal?

Active contracts are tracked for key obligation and renewal dates, with alerts sent ahead of expiration.

Can a contract be amended after activation?

An active contract can be amended, renewed, or terminated, with each change tracked against the original record.

Can we start from a template instead of a blank draft?

VectorCLM supports contract templates, so a new request can start from an approved starting point instead of a blank page.
