Contract Renewals, Flagged Before They Slip

Supplier contracts in a SharePoint Server library email their owners when a contract turns Renewal due, 30 days before its renewal date and in one weekly digest. Built with Virto Notifications & Alerts On-Premises on your own farm.

Illustrative reminder email thirty days before a renewal: the Fabrikam IT support contract renews on 22 November, at $48,000 a year.

Alert, Remind, Summarize: Three Rules on One Library

Virto Notifications & Alerts On-Premises sits on an ordinary SharePoint Server page and watches any list or library you point it at. The screens are from our SharePoint Subscription Edition demo farm: a Vendor contracts library with six supplier contracts, each with a vendor, an owner, a renewal date, an annual value and a status.

Step 1 · Alert

An email the moment a contract turns Renewal due

Conditions on any field

A rule can watch every change or only some: equals, contains, greater or less than, is empty, was changed, and several conditions together.

Email, SMS or Clickatell

Each rule sends by email over your SMTP server, by SMS, or through the Clickatell gateway.

The Options tab of the rule Contract marked Renewal due in Virto Notifications & Alerts On-Premises: Filter items set to Use condition(s), with Status equals Renewal due and, joined by And, Status was changed; When To Send Alerts set to Send notification immediately; the box Send separate e-mail for each item unticked
Two conditions on the Status field: the alert goes out only when a contract changes to Renewal due.

Step 2 · Remind

A reminder 30 days before the renewal date

Before, on or after a date

Any date field can drive a reminder: on the day, a number of days before or after, a number of days taken from another field, with or without a daily repeat.

One digest instead of ten emails

Changes can also be collected into a daily or a weekly summary, sent on the day and at the hour you set.

The Options tab of the reminder Renewal in 30 days: Filter items set to Apply to all items, When To Send Reminders set to the Renewal date field, The e-mail will be sent Before 30 Days, Set Time ticked with Time 09 : 00
The reminder reads each contract's Renewal date and writes 30 days earlier, at 9:00.

Step 3 · Read

The email the contract owner gets

Your own message

Subject and body are written once, with tags for the item's title, the change and the old or new value of any field, plus a header and a footer.

Recipients beyond the site

To, CC and BCC take people or any outside address, and To also takes a contact list, with your own sender name and reply-to.

The alert email in Outlook on the web: subject Renewal due: Fabrikam - IT support services.pdf, the heading Fabrikam - IT support services.pdf - Item modified, and the lines Vendor: Fabrikam, Inc., Annual value: $48,000 and Renews on 11/22/2026. Confirm the renewal with the vendor or give notice.
The email the farm sent a minute after the Fabrikam contract turned Renewal due.

Key benefits

No missed notice periods

A reminder before each renewal date leaves time to renegotiate or cancel instead of renewing by default.

Quiet unless it matters

Conditions on any field keep routine edits from turning into email.

One digest for managers

A daily or weekly summary replaces a stream of single alerts.

Your farm, your data

The web part runs inside your SharePoint Server farm; the contracts stay on your servers.

Every rule on one page

Alerts and reminders for the site are listed, searched, enabled and disabled in one web part.

A perpetual licence

On-premises licences never expire; a yearly renewal brings updates and support.

What contract renewals need, and what handles them

Real-life scenario
Best fit
Why it works
A contract must be renewed or cancelled before its notice period ends

A reminder on the renewal date field writes to the owner 30 days ahead, or as many days as the notice period needs.

Legal must know when a contract's status changes

An alert with conditions fires only for the change that matters, not for every edit.

A manager wants one overview, not an email per change

A daily or weekly summary collects every change in the library into one message.

An outside counsel or a vendor's account manager has to be told too

Any email address can be a recipient, next to the people in your directory.

The contracts live in SharePoint Online, not on your own servers

The Microsoft 365 app sends alerts and reminders from SharePoint Online lists and libraries.

Drafting, negotiating and signing the contracts
A contract lifecycle management system

The web part tells people about contracts kept in SharePoint; it does not draft, negotiate or sign them.
