Contracts Module

Manage the contract as an ongoing obligation from registration and archiving through renewal or termination, not merely as a stored document.

Banks deal with multiple contracts with suppliers, partners, law firms, and service providers. When contracts are stored without a central register and tracking of dates, addenda, and obligations, there is a risk of using a non-final version or missing a renewal.

The module serves as a center for managing, tracking, and archiving bank contracts within Legal Affairs scope, from recording data and saving the final version and addenda through tracking commencement, expiry, renewal, amendment, and termination.
