Managing vendor contracts and renewals can be tricky, but our new **Vendor Renewal Functionality** makes it simple and intuitive. With this feature, you’ll seamlessly track key information such as start dates, term lengths, and auto-renewal statuses while keeping important reminders in mind.

### Key Features:

- **Vendor Status**: Now, each vendor can be marked as active or inactive, giving you clarity on which relationships require attention.
- **Comprehensive Vendor Data**: In addition to the basic contract details like start date, term length, and contract amount, you can now track payment frequency, end dates, and whether the contract will auto-renew.
- **Automated Reminders**: The system will notify you before the opt-out period, ensuring no contracts auto-renew without your awareness. You can set the reminder period to match your needs, so you'll never miss an important deadline again.

### Reporting and Filters:

- **Priority Reporting**: Vendors are listed based on the urgency of their renewal dates. This allows you to quickly see which contracts need immediate action.
- **Auto-Renew Filters**: Filter vendors by their auto-renew status to focus on those that need your immediate attention.
- **Contract Status**: Sort vendors by status so you can easily manage contracts nearing the end of their term or requiring action.

With our **Vendor Renewal Functionality**, staying on top of your contracts has never been easier. Make smart, timely decisions without the stress of missed deadlines. Keep your vendor relationships healthy and your renewals under control.
