Adding a New Version of a Contract from Word

Caution:
Microsoft Word 2016 and some versions of 2019 use Internet Explorer 11 to display the ThoughtRiver application via the Word Add-In. It is possible that you may encounter performance issues as this browser is no longer supported by Microsoft.

  • For best performance and full feature support, we suggest you install the Edge browser, use Office 365, or Word Online when using the ThoughtRiver Word Add-In.

To upload a new version of a contract from Word, you need to ensure you have installed the ThoughtRiver Word Add-In. Once you've installed the add-in, open the contract in Microsoft Word, launch the ThoughtRiver add-in, and log in to your account.

If this is a new contract, you should be prompted to either upload it as a new negotiation or upload it as a new version of an existing contract.

Uploading a new version

Steps to upload a new version:

  1. Use the Search Bar to find the existing contract to which you want to add a version.
  2. Click Upload a new Version.

Tip:
You may click View contract to open a web browser view of the contract you are selecting.

You're all set! ThoughtRiver will keep you updated on the progress of receiving and completing its analysis of your contract with system notifications and a progress bar in the add-on.
