Explore Core Capabilities
Salesforce Contracts helps businesses reduce contract cycle times, improve compliance, lower administrative overhead, and increase renewal rates.
- Contract authoring
- Create contracts from pre-approved templates using Document Template Designer. Maintain a clause library of reusable, standardized legal language. Edit documents in Microsoft 365 with changes synced to Salesforce.
- Contract lifecycle management
- Define contract types for different agreement categories. Configure state models that control which actions and transitions are available at each lifecycle stage, from draft through activation.
- Contract creation from sales records
- Create and update contracts directly from opportunities, orders, quotes, or custom objects. Track contract line items and manage document versions automatically.
- E-signature integration
- Integrate with DocuSign to send contracts for electronic signature and attach signed copies to the contract record.
- Obligation management
- Track contractual commitments, assign obligations to owners, and monitor compliance status. Each obligation carries a status of Compliant, Non-Compliant, or At Risk.
- Contracts AI
- Generate clauses using generative AI, extract key data from legacy paper contracts, and draft clauses directly within Microsoft 365.
- Contracts Analytics
- Use dashboards to monitor contract status, track performance metrics, analyze revenue impact, and identify lifecycle bottlenecks.
