Contracts

Typically, each bargaining unit will have different contracts from one another. Members that have signed up with a specific bargaining unit will only be able to view the contract that is related to their bargaining unit.

Creating/Editing a Contract

  1. Login to the app manager
  2. Click on the bargaining unit you want to add a contract to from the left menu under Member Specific Info
  3. Click Manage Contract:
  1. Choose whichever contract type is best for you:
    • Searchable – This option allows your members to search for whatever they are looking for in the contract. The articles can be entered one at a time or alternatively you can use the Magic Split feature to enter all the articles at once.
    • PDF – If your contract is in a PDF version, you can upload it using this contract type. You can upload multiple PDFs this way by holding down the CTRL key when clicking the files.
    • Full Text – This contract type allows you to copy and paste your whole contract into one text box. This isn’t recommended as the formatting is not visually pleasing.
  2. Once you have entered in the contract click Submit
  3. The uploaded contract will be viewable in the app to members of that bargaining unit under View My Contract

  2. Click Manage Contract
  3. Choose the Searchable contract type
  4. Enter the keyword that will be used to split your contract into separate articles. Default is ###
  5. Copy and paste your contract where it says Paste entire document here
