The ComPDF jobs you can stop doing yourself
You stay in charge of what goes out. Flann does the reading, the drafting and the chasing.
Chasing the unsigned agreements
Today
Every week a few agreements sit unsigned in ComPDF. Working out who has not signed, and writing a polite nudge to each person, quietly eats the end of your Friday afternoon.
With Flann
“Which agreements in ComPDF are still waiting for a signature?”
Open envelopes in ComPDF come back as one list: who each is waiting on and how long it has been out. A short reminder is drafted for each signer, in the tone you use with customers and suppliers, and checked against what was already sent so nobody is nagged twice in a week.
What you stop doing: Keeping a mental list of who still owes you a signature stops being your job.
Filing the stray uploads
Today
Scans, photos and attachments land wherever they happened to be saved. Once a month you try to sort the mess in ComPDF and never quite finish.
With Flann
“Tidy this month’s uploads in ComPDF into the right client folders.”
Each new file in ComPDF is matched to the client or supplier it belongs to, and the ones called scan or untitled get a proposed name that says what they are. The whole plan arrives as one card you can edit.
What you stop doing: Sorting stray uploads once a month falls away.
