Document Attachments

Every contract in OpenCLM can have supporting documents attached to it — exhibits, statements of work, amendments, signed copies, regulatory filings, or any other file that belongs with the agreement.

The Document Attachments tab listing files attached to a contract with type, size, and upload metadata

Attaching Documents

  1. Open a contract and click the Documents tab.
  2. Click Attach File (or drag-and-drop files onto the panel).
  3. For each uploaded file, you can optionally set:
    • Document type — Exhibit, SOW, Amendment, Cover Letter, Signed Copy, Other
    • Description — a brief note visible in the document list
  4. Click Upload.

Organising Documents

Documents are listed in a table showing: Name, Type, Uploaded by, Upload date, Size.

You can:

  • Rename any document inline.
  • Download individual files.
  • Preview PDFs and images without downloading.
  • Delete documents (Contract Manager / Admin only).
  • Reorder documents by dragging rows.

Document Visibility & Permissions

Document visibility follows the contract's permission model:

  • Any user with read access to the contract can download attachments.
  • Confidential documents can be marked as restricted — only users with the documents:manage permission can view them.

Versioning Attachments

If you re-upload a file with the same name, OpenCLM asks whether to:

  • Replace the existing file (the old file is archived in version history).
  • Add as new version (both files are kept; the latest is shown by default).

Bulk Download

Select multiple documents using the checkboxes and click Download Selected to receive a ZIP archive of all selected files.
