  • Publication number: 20230185861
    Abstract: A centralized document system receives a request to merge a first document package associated with a first party and a second document package associated with a second party. The first document package includes a first set of documents and the second document package includes a second set of documents. In response to the request, the centralized document system identifies a first subset of documents included in both the first and second sets of documents and identifies a second subset of documents with conflicts between the first and second sets of documents. The centralized document system rectifies the second subset of documents to cure the conflicts between the first and second sets of documents. The centralized document system generates a merged document package including the first subset of documents and the rectified second subset of documents for execution by the first and second parties.

  • Publication number: 20220245122
    Abstract: A centralized document system generates a document package in response to a request by an originating entity. The document package includes at least one document for execution. To facilitate the execution of the at least one document, the centralized document system can provide one or more means to modify the document package. The centralized document system may provide the document package to a receiving entity and receive a request to modify the document package from the receiving entity. The centralized document system may scan the document package prior to sending to a receiving entity and automatically modify the document package according to the scan. The centralized document system may provide the document package to a receiving entity and determine the receiving entity is unavailable. As such, the centralized document system may determine a substitute receiving entity and provide the document package to the substitute entity for execution.

  • Publication number: 20210349885
    Abstract: An electronic document service provides an interoperable network in which entities can come to agreement as peers. Entities can create a network of trusted accounts, enable sharing and collaboration within the network, enforce process settings of shared transactions, and enable customized levels of visibility into transactions for all entities involved. In embodiments, an agent server receives documents from suppliers to be executed within a network of the electronic document service. Each document corresponds to signing requirements and collection requirements. The agent server combines the documents into a single signing package based on the signing requirements associated with each document. The agent server provides the signing package for execution, and receives the executed signing package. The agent server extracts the individual signed documents from the executed signing package.
