Visual agreement timeline in Agreement Manager (key dates, notice periods, renewals, custom milestones)

Categories:Agreement Manager

When I open or select an agreement in Agreement Manager, the dates I need are spread across separate fields. The panel doesn’t show them together in order. I’d like a visual timeline of the agreement’s key dates right where I’m already looking at that agreement.

Where it would appear (any of these would work):

  1. Agreement details page: a new “Timeline” tab next to the existing details/fields
  2. Info timeline (ⓘ) side panel: a compact timeline section, so I don’t have to open the full details page (mouseover for example)
  3. Insights panel when an agreement is selected: a timeline card alongside the AI-extracted insights

Proposal: add a Timeline view on each agreement, plus a portfolio-level version, that shows:

  • Start / effective date
  • End / expiration date
  • Notice deadline: worked out from the expiration date and the notice period
  • Auto-renewal: whether it renews automatically, the renewal date, the renewal term and the next projected term
  • Notifications / reminders: shown as markers you can add or edit directly on the timeline
  • Additional dates: payment obligations, price reviews, option dates, amendments and any other custom date fields
  • A “today” marker, with the time left until the next deadline


    Nice to have:

  • Click a date to jump to the clause it came from in the document

  • Set a reminder from the timeline itself, relative to any date on it (e.g. 60 days before the notice deadline

    Benefit: you see the agreement’s whole lifecycle at a glance, without leaving the agreement, so notice periods and auto-renewals don’t get missed.

Portfolio view: timelines for all agreements (Insights / Reports / Dashboard)

Besides the timeline on each agreement, give us an overview of all agreements’ timelines at once:

  • Insights tab / dashboard widget: a Gantt-style view with one row per agreement, showing start → end, notice deadlines, renewal dates and notifications
  • Filters and grouping: by agreement type, counterparty, owner, agreement set, renewal type (auto/manual) and status (Active, Expiring Soon, Renewing Soon)
  • Time windows: next 30/60/90 days, this quarter, this year, plus a “today” line
  • Highlights: notice deadlines coming up soon, agreements that renew automatically, and agreements with no notification set
  • Calendar view as an alternative to the Gantt layout
  • Export: to Excel/PDF, and as a scheduled report emailed to owners
  • Click-through: from a row or date straight to that agreement’s Timeline tab

Benefit: legal, procurement and finance can see at a glance what’s coming up across the whole portfolio, without building their own spreadsheet of dates.
