How Do I Add a Contract to My Precedent Library?

There are two ways to add a contract to your Precedent library in DocJuris. Once saved, the contract becomes read-only and is available as a reference point for future negotiations.

Option 1: During Contract Upload

When uploading a contract through the contract analyzer on the home dashboard, you can designate it as precedent during setup.

  1. From the home dashboard, open the contract analyzer "Analyze a Contract" and begin a new upload.
  2. Fill out the required contract information and attach your file.
  3. Expand the Advanced Options section at the bottom of the form.
  4. Select Save as read-only precedent for future reference — the last option in the list.
  5. Complete the upload. The contract will be saved directly to your Precedent library.

Option 2: From the Precedent Tab

You can also add precedent contracts directly from the Precedent tab, without going through the contract analyzer.

  1. Navigate to the Precedent tab in DocJuris.
  2. Click the Add Precedent button.
  3. Fill out the required contract information and upload your file.
  4. Submit the form. The contract will be added to your Precedent library as a read-only record.

Contracts saved as precedent are read-only and cannot be edited. They are available across your Precedent library as a reference for future negotiations.
