“Which agreements in Drop to CDN are still waiting for a signature?”
Open envelopes in Drop to CDN 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.
