Buyer: What actions are available from the read-only view of a contract?
Many actions can be taken on a contract from the read-only view of the contract; some of which can only be accessed from that view. To start, access your Contract Dashboard by clicking "Buy" on the left-hand side menu, then selecting "Contracts".
From there you can view your Contracts. There are a few actions you can take on the right-hand side of your desired contract.
Edit: This action is available for contracts with the status "Draft" and allows you to make changes to a contract that has not yet been submitted or issued.
Delete: A contract can be deleted when it is still in the "Draft" state. This action is typically used when the buyer no longer needs a contract that they created.
Issue: This action is available to users with the appropriate permissions if the contract or contract with revisions has been approved, but not yet issued.
You can select the Contract that you wish to view by clicking "View" in the right-hand Action column.
You will be taken to the Contract view page. Here you can navigate all of the different information included within the contract.
Revise Contract: This action is available for contracts that have been submitted or issued and allows you to make any necessary edits.
Submit Revisions: This action will allow you to contact the media seller and request production specifications.
Under Actions -
Map: View the inventory included in the contract on a map.
Cancel Contract: A contract that has been submitted or issued is generally canceled when the buyer no longer has the need for the assets once being contracted, often due to a change on the client's side. When a contract is canceled, an email notification is sent to the seller.
Export Contract: This action consolidates all of the contract information, agency, and seller contact details, selected contract terms, attachments, and data related to inventory on the contract. A PDF version of the contract is then downloaded and displays everything in its real format. Once you have made any necessary updates to the contract, this exported version is the official contract that can be used to complete the buy. To see steps on exporting, click here
