Setting Up Default Attachments and Appendices

Pocketlaw’s Default Attachments automatically include essential materials in template-based documents, streamlining workflows, ensuring compliance, and reducing manual work.

Automatic Attachment Inclusion

Default attachments are pre-added to templates and will be automatically included in any document created from those templates.

To add default attachments:

  1. Go to the Templates section.
  2. Click the three dots (…) next to a template and select Manage Default Attachments.
  3. Upload or select attachments to include as default.

Customizing Attachments in Individual Documents

Once a document is created, attachments can be managed from the Attachments section in the contract dashboard (right-hand side).

  • Add new attachments
  • Remove or replace default attachments if they are no longer required

Embedding Attachments Within a Contract

Attachments can be directly embedded within a contract during the editing process.

To embed an attachment:

  1. Open the contract in editing mode.
  2. Click on the section where you want to embed the attachment.
  3. Navigate to the Attachments tab in the contract dashboard.
  4. Click the three dots (…) next to the attachment and select Embed.

External Sharing and Approval

  • Attachments can be shared with counterparties via External Sharing.
  • Any attachments included in a contract will automatically be sent for approval during the eSigning process.

Benefits of Default Attachments

  • Flexibility – Document creators can customize attachments when necessary.
  • Efficiency – Save time by pre-defining frequently used attachments.
  • Streamlined Collaboration – Easily embed and share attachments with counterparties.

By setting up Default Attachments in Pocketlaw, you create a structured and efficient contract workflow, reducing manual work while ensuring that all necessary materials are always included.
