Contract Dashboard in MatterSuite

What is a Contract Dashboard?

A contract dashboard is a visual summary screen that gives you a quick, at-a-glance view of all the contracts in your system. Instead of opening each contract individually to check its status, value, or progress, the dashboard pulls all that information together in one place using charts, graphs, and summary cards.

What is it used for?

A contract dashboard helps you:

  • Quickly see how many contracts are in each stage (like Draft, Negotiating, or Signing)

  • Track the total value of contracts across different stages, departments, or against your allocated budget 

  • Look at upcoming renewals and identify your highest-value contracts

  • Understand which departments or contract types are most active
