Where Flann saves you time in PandaDoc
Small jobs, repeated often, are where the time goes. Here is how they change once PandaDoc is connected.
Reading the long contract for you
Today
Supplier agreements and leases run to pages of dense clauses. You skim them late at night, or sign without properly reading the renewal terms.
With Flann
“What does the new linen supplier contract in PandaDoc say about notice and price rises?”
Every page of the contract in PandaDoc gets read, not just the first few. You get the notice period, the renewal date, any automatic price rise and anything unusual, each with the clause it comes from.
What you stop doing: Skimming clauses late at night before you sign is over.
Updating the price list sheet
Today
When a supplier puts prices up, the change has to reach your price list in PandaDoc. Finding every affected row, retyping the figures and checking the margin column is fiddly work, and one slip means selling at a loss for weeks.
With Flann
“The wholesaler email has new dairy prices. Update every milk drink in the PandaDoc price list.”
Using the new figures from the email, Flann finds every row in PandaDoc that relies on dairy and works out the new cost and margin for each.
What you stop doing: Hunting down every affected row and retyping figures by hand is gone.
