Automated Contract Renewal Notifications
Manually tracking contract expiration dates can lead to missed renewals, service lapses, and lost revenue. Contractors need a reliable way to stay ahead of these deadlines to retain customers and maintain cash flow.
LMN’s automated contract renewal notifications streamline this process, helping you act promptly and reduce administrative workload.
What’s New:
- Automated Reminders: Get notified when contracts near expiration.
- Actionable ToDos: Create tasks with essential contract details for quick follow-up.
- Customizable Settings: Tailor notifications to align with your workflow.
Lock Estimates to Prevent Unintended Changes
Once an estimate reaches a critical stage, unauthorized changes can lead to project delays, inaccuracies, and damaged client trust. Contractors need a secure way to lock estimates without disrupting workflows.
LMN’s new locking features protect finalized estimates, ensuring they remain secure while allowing for flexibility in managing updates.
What’s New:
- Manual Locking: Restrict edits after approval.
- Status-Based Locking: Automatically lock estimates at critical project milestones.
- Granular Permissions: Allow specific roles to manage or unlock estimates.
Acknowledgement Checkbox for Proposal Acceptance
Misunderstandings about proposal terms can lead to confusion after work begins. With the new Acknowledgement Checkbox, you can ensure your customers read and confirm the details of your proposals before signing. This additional step increases clarity, improves customer trust, and helps align with legal requirements.
What’s New:
- Acknowledge Terms Checkbox: Before approving a proposal, customers must check a box to confirm they’ve read and agreed to the proposal details.
- Clear Confirmation: The checkbox appears on the ‘Approve Proposal’ screen in the Customer Portal for both Web and Mobile versions.

You can now deeplink to a specific area within your Estimating views. We have updated our urls to include the tab name that you are on so you can quickly save and get back to a favorite view more easily.
What’s New:
- Tab URLs: Get back to a specific Estimate view with an updated web url that includes the tab name.
