With key upgrades in contract clause visibility, document processing, platform usability, and B2B API functionalities, this release empowers users with smarter contracting capabilities.
Let’s explore the highlights of this release.
Platform Enhancements
1. Enhanced UX for Contract Clauses
The Contract Clause tab now features a more streamlined layout, visually highlighting key clause details, deviations, and metadata. This enhancement improves readability, making it easier for users to efficiently review and analyze contract clauses.
2. Effortless Settings Management in Admin 2.0
Key settings are now integrated into Admin 2.0 for easy discovery. Selecting a setting in Admin 2.0 instantly redirects users to its configuration page, eliminating the need for manual switching.
3. Migration of Settings from Admin 1.0 to Admin 2.0
With key settings moved to Admin 2.0, navigation is more intuitive, workflows are streamlined, and overall UI/UX is significantly improved.
Access Updated Settings via:
- Search Bar
- Quick Link Panel
- Home Page
Enhanced Features:
- Listing Page – Improved views, filters, columns, downloads, and audit logs.
- Create & Edit Pages – Easily add and modify entries.
- Customizable Views – Save filters and column preferences.
- Audit Log – Track and review changes with View History.
4. Sirion & SSO Login UX Enhancements
The SSO login button is now more prominent, and the form login button remains disabled until both username and password fields contain input, improving usability.
Authoring Enhancements
1. Automatic Watermark Removal in Final Documents
Watermarks are now automatically removed when a document is marked final, sent for signature, or a PDF is generated for a no-touch contract. Other document cleanup actions, such as removing comments and tracked changes, remain intact.
2. Full Template Names Now Visible in Template Wizard
Template names are now displayed in full within the Template Wizard, eliminating the need to hover over truncated names. This applies to both main and sub-templates, improving selection clarity.
3. Improved Contract Line Item Template Management
CLI templates now maintain consistent identifiers across systems during Automated Deployment, ensuring seamless template tracking and updates.
Aministrative & Usability Enhancements
1. Optimized Network Failure Handling
A persistent toast message now alerts users to connectivity issues during network failures. The application retains entered data to prevent loss and confirms connectivity restoration once the network is back online.
2. Welcome Pop-up Removed for a Streamlined Experience
The welcome pop-up has been removed upon login, as the same message is already displayed on the home page. Users can still view their last login details under their profile.
3. Standardized Default Language for Contract Requests and Emails
Default language selection for external users now aligns with contract request metadata. If unavailable, the client’s default language is used, ensuring consistency across emails and contract communications.
4. Event-Based Rules (Admin 2.0) – Expanded Status Transition Actions
Status Transition actions now support non-workflow actions such as archiving expired contracts, restoring documents, and putting contracts on hold.
Admin users can now:
- Archive
- Restore
- Put On-hold
- Activate
B2B API Enhancements
1. New APIs for Smarter Integration
- GET Template List API: Now includes External ID field for improved accessibility.
- Template Metadata API: Fetches key details such as template name and ID.
- Template Search & List API: Enables users to efficiently filter and find CLI templates.
2. Bulk API Support for Workflow 2.0
- Users can now define a workflow for each record or let the system apply default criteria, providing more control and flexibility.
- Bulk Invoice Line Item Management: Create multiple invoice line items in a single request, reducing processing time.
