## How to automatically create a contract card from a signed document

In SimpleSign you can send documents for esignature.

You can set so that a document sent out for e-signing automatically generates an agreement card when the signing process is complete. To do this, activate the function under the tab: ***Details*** in connection with sending out the document for signature.

When the contract card is generated, the information from the assigned document will be transferred to the contract card.

- The metadata (data from the fields in the document) are entered in matching fields on the agreement card.
- The assigned document is attached.
- The recipients in the signature process are added as contacts.
- The sender (user) is added as the contract owner
- The document type becomes the contract type.
- The document number becomes the agreement number.

- You don't need an island of platforms to manage your documents.
- By having both e-signing and contract monitoring in one and the same place, you can become completely digital.
