Create a Contract | Divvy Contracts

Negotiation & E-Signature: the full collaborative experience. You and the other party exchange edits, redline the document back and forth, and sign once both sides are satisfied.
E-Signature Only: skip negotiation. Draft your contract and send it directly to be signed.

Step 3. Fill in contract details

Complete the following fields: contract name, contract type, monetary value, due date, term start and end date, receiving organization name, and parent contract (if this contract is linked to an existing one).

💡 Your admin can configure up to 20 custom contract type fields to capture additional information specific to your organization.

Step 4. Assign internal users and roles

Add teammates from your organization and assign each one a role:

👑 Owner

Publish turns
Manage roles & access
Edit the document
Prepare signature

✏️ Contributor

Edit the document
Add suggestions
Leave comments
Cannot publish turns
Mark as reviewed

👁 Viewer

Read-only access
Cannot make edits or suggestions

Step 5. Add the receiving party

Add users from the other organization and assign their roles as well. You can assign their roles yourself, or leave it for the receiving party to set when they join.

⚠️ Adding the receiving party at this stage does not notify them. They won't receive any email until you publish the contract.

Step 6. Create the contract

Click Create Contract. Your contract will be created in Draft status and you'll be taken directly to the Contract Workspace to start building.

💡 You can also import an existing Word document directly into the Contract Workspace instead of starting from scratch.
