From your dashboard, you can manage all your Engagement Letters. This includes:

  • if they have been signed and if they haven't who you are waiting on

  • take multiple actions such as duplicating, editing and resending.


Here’s a breakdown of the features you can use to search for Engagement Letters:

Feature

Purpose

Example

Company

This column provides the company name.

Status

There are 4 statuses:
Live, Draft, Won and Lost.

This column provides us with the status of the Engagement Letter, so we can review and take action as required.

Live – represents that an Engagement Letter has been sent but not signed.
Draft – shows for an Engagement Letter that has been created but not yet sent. This means you can come back and edit the Engagement Letter later, before sending.
Won – represents that an Engagement Letter has been signed. This status updates automatically once the client signs the Engagement Letter, however you can look to manually mark an Engagement Letter as won too using the actions on the dashboard.
Lost – the lost status represents that an Engagement Letter is no longer active or no longer needed. To mark an engagement letter as lost, this has to be done manually using the actions on the dashboard.

Date Created

This column shows the specific date an engagement letter was created. All Engagement Letters are in date order, with the most recent at the top.

Created By

ID
