ParticipantSo basically, what I’m thinking is a way to add a student to a contract as is, without needing to go through and upgrade the agreement. It’s come up a few times where the amount is correct for multiple students but there is only one student listed, for whatever reason, and all we really need is to just add the other student’s name and info. I don’t know if it’s a legal issue but it feels like it should be possible to just add a name and DOB and hit print, to get a signature, without going through the whole process of stopping a contract just to restart the exact same thing with a new name added.

KeymasterYes, I totally understand the types of scenarios you’re describing.
As you mentioned, at present, the ‘only’ mechanism we have to accomplish this is the ‘upgrade’ the agreement, “replacing” the current agreement with a new one.
We DO have a smoother solution for this type of issue ‘in progress’. Behind the scenes we’ve been working on a whole new ‘engine’ for agreement management to make all that easier to handle. I can’t tell you exactly when we’ll be ready to release this update, but please do understand, we know how frustrating it is to have to go through the ‘whole’ agreement process just to make a simple change, and we have a solution on the way.
Please ALSO do understand, that when you do make ANY change to a legal document (ie. contract), you are opening up the door to potential legal exposure. As an example, let’s say you have a signed contract for “Billy” in your school….but then you just ‘add’ “Sally” weeks after the fact.
If you did NOT get the parent to sign another new contract referencing Sally, and Sally get’s injured next week……have you created some legal exposure.
Something to consider!
The new solution we’re working on will give you the flexibility you’re describing, but ALSO prompt you to get a NEW signature from the buyer to approve/re-authorize any changes that you’ve made. Without that new ‘authorization’, you could be treading on dangerous ground.
I’ll be sure to let you all know when we have the new approach ready to roll!
Thanks for the thoughtful feedback!!!
