In business, the process from contract creation to sending is not only prone to human error but also time-consuming, which is one of the challenges.
However, by integrating kintone and freee Sign and automating the process, these challenges can be resolved.
This article explains how to set up automation and its benefits.

Benefits of Integrating kintone and freee Sign

Benefit 1: Prevent Human Errors

You can automate the flow of creating a contract with one click based on kintone data and sending it via freee Sign.
When creating and sending contracts manually, there is a risk of errors in the contract details or sending mistakes.
However, by implementing such automation, you can create contracts while maintaining data accuracy.
This not only prevents mistakes but also eliminates the need for correction work.
