How to delete or restore a contract in ContractSafe

Learn how to delete one or more contracts from the Contracts List or Contract Page, and how to bring a deleted contract back.

ContractSafe lets authorized users delete one or more contracts from the Contracts List, or delete an individual contract from the Contract Page. Deleted contracts move out of the active contract list, and users with the required restore permission can restore them from Deleted Contracts on the Dashboard.

Before deleting a contract

Deletion changes the active contract list. Before selecting Delete:

  • Confirm that the contract is the correct record.
  • Check whether the contract has related documents, reminders, approvals, or eSign activity that your team still needs.
  • Confirm that you have the required delete permission (see ContractSafe roles and permissions).
  • If you're unsure, download or preserve the document before deleting it (see how to download your contract).
