Make contract renewal preparation a process, not a memory test.

Two dates, one decision

The renewal date is when the next term begins. The cancellation deadline is when notice must be given if the agreement auto-renews. Renewal Vista stores both, along with auto-renew status, so the review happens while there is still time to act.

Keep context on the record

Connect the contract to a vendor, owner, department, location, contracted cost, and currency. On Standard and Business, upload the agreement or notice so the reviewer is not searching inboxes and shared drives during the decision window.

Record what was actually decided

Statuses such as Active, Decision Pending, Renewed, Cancelled, and Expired are set by the team. Renewal Vista does not infer that a contract renewed or ended because a date passed. Carry the next period forward on purpose and keep the history with the record.
