Functions that simplify management

Customized or standardized reminders – it’s your choice

In the edoc contract, automated deadline management organizes which reminder function is sent by e-mail to an individual, several people or groups. People and groups can also be combined. 
Different reminders can be created for all contract documents or contract annex documents. These can be selected on a contract-specific basis, for example, notice periods, guarantee reminders etc., however, they can also be general reminders about tasks or follow-up actions. The reminders are sent to the responsible people by e-mail to their personal inbox. From this message, it is possible to open the associated contract document directly from d.velop documents.

When using the edoc contract, the contract filing structure can be freely defined according to customer-specific requirements. This can include both simple scenarios with only one type of contract document or more complex file structures for individual contracts and framework contracts. In this way, all contract-based documents, information and activities are summarized in a targeted manner. Contracts can be managed based on general and customer-specific master data. Checking and approval processes for the documents are supported by the standard functions of d.velop documents.

More Functions that will blow your mind

Everything is under control: The "reminder function" keeps you informed in good time when a task, a renewal or the termination of the contract is due.

Automatic versioning takes place using the barcode and cover sheet as soon as a contract is scanned. Colleagues (in the mailroom, administration, etc.) can also scan documents. Your document management system then automatically recognizes the contract and assigns it appropriately.
