  • Contracts:  Introduce option to 'Auto-Renew' contracts.

 IT Teams have many subscription agreements with vendors such as SaaS vendors which do not expire and instead renews periodically (monthly, yearly...etc). To keep track of such agreements, we are introducing the option to set contracts as Auto-Renewing. 

 

Upon reaching the end date of the contract, the contract is automatically renewed for the same period of the original contract and this continues until the contract is manually terminated. 

 

Contract managers can set contract renewal reminders to make sure they are on top of all the renewals.
