Summary Sheet of a Template:

The summary sheet is available across all stages. Therefore, you can define the summary sheet on a template, document in approval, negotiation, as well as on signed documents.  

For instance, define the Summary Sheet from a template, so:

• information will travel to any document generated from the template, and
• renewals will automatically be set once the document is signed
