Now you can change a contract’s executed date to capture the exact date a contract was signed, enhancing data and report accuracy. This can be done when a contract is uploaded or moves to the executed stage in LawVu. You can change the date directly on the contract record, from the preview, and from the contracts grid. This is especially useful when you need to upload a signed contract at a later date.

We’ve also added a new Executed date column on the business portal contract’s grid to provide business portal users with greater visibility over all their contracts.

Using LawVu spend management capabilities to streamline invoice approvals and capture key spend data? Now you can enhance your invoice payment process by automatically routing approved invoices to different teams based on conditions like department, region and invoice fee value. Setting up conditional forwarding is easy. Read this help article to learn more.

Our mission is to make our customers’ lives better with every feature and every click. We love working with you to improve LawVu, and we’ve recently invested in a collection of small updates that will make a big difference, based on your requests.

​UI enhancements for permissions: Users whose permissions are revoked or who no longer have access to LawVu are now marked as 'Deactivated' instead of 'Disabled' to accurately reflect their LawVu access status.

Improved knowledge base article organization: Articles in the knowledge base are now neatly listed alphabetically within category and folders, making it easy to scan and find what you need.

Change LSP access level from Pending status: For spend management customers, if you've invited a legal service provider to LawVu but now want to revoke their access, click the Pending invitation icon next to their name and change their access to "No Access". They'll remain in the system and you can attribute your spend to them but won't have access to your data or see you in their directory.

Create a new matter type called 'feedback' to capture feedback from the wider business. This matter type allows users to submit ideas and fosters a culture of continual improvement and helps the legal team initiate conversations with stakeholders. Here are some ways you can increase visibility on this easy way to provide feedback:

If you have templates in your knowledge base like employment letters, cease and desist letters, and sales summaries, LawVu for Word add-in can help you quickly populate your templates with key data from LawVu to save time. This speeds up the process and helps identify missing critical information that needs to be captured and included in your documents.

See it in action below:

If you see value in using this functionality for other supporting documents that don’t currently have a template, get in touch with your organization admins to help set up the templates you need.

Read this help article to learn how to generate supporting documents in a few clicks.

We value your feedback and would appreciate you sharing your experience with your peers. Please take a moment to review LawVu on G2. It’s safe, quick and you can review anonymously if you prefer.
