How to customize the information requested from your client before contract signing?

The standard details Fotostudio needs for a contract to be signed, for example when a shoot or a mini session is booked online, are:

last name,
first name,
email,
phone,
address.

If one or more of these details are missing, the client is shown a window to fill them in before opening the contract.

Fotostudio only asks for the contact details your contract uses. With the {clients} variable, it asks for everything: last name, first name, email, phone and full address. Without {clients}, it only asks for the details of the variables present in the contract (for example {phone} or {street}).

Standard data required for contract signing

You can customize the information Fotostudio asks your client for before signing, using a contact form.

This lets your client fill in some of the details that will appear on their contract themselves, such as their company name or their date of birth.

To start, create a dedicated form in Contacts > Modules > Contact forms with the fields you want. You can also add custom fields.

Contact form editor

Then link this form to the contract in Templates > Contracts & terms of business: open the template, click "Advanced features" and choose your form in the "Linked contact form" field.

Editing a contract template

Your client will then have to fill in this form before signing, and you can insert the details they entered into the contract with the matching variables.
