Can I sign documents in Cash Workspace?

No. Cash Workspace does not offer e-signature. It stores and organizes documents so you can find the right version quickly; signing happens wherever you already handle it.

Does it review my contracts?

No. Cash Workspace does not review contracts or provide legal advice. It keeps your agreements filed and easy to find so the right version is always at hand.

How should I name my documents?

Name each document with its date and a short description so the current version is obvious at a glance and older versions can be archived rather than deleted.

How do I keep document versions straight?

Put the date in the file name and archive superseded versions into a clearly-labelled “previous” folder, so the live version is never in doubt.

Business document organization for video editors

Contracts, agreements, statements, and receipts live in different apps and inboxes, so finding the right version of the right document takes far too long. For video editors, documents like Editing service agreements, Stock footage & music licenses, and Client contracts & scopes of work end up spread across apps and inboxes. Cash Workspace gives you one place to record each item, attach its file, and keep it where you can find it. It is free.

The problem

Why video editors lose track

Contracts, agreements, statements, and receipts live in different apps and inboxes, so finding the right version of the right document takes far too long.

Buying stock footage and plugins without tagging them to the client edit, so per-project costs are impossible to reconstruct.
Filing subscription invoices in email instead of with the finance records, so recurring software charges go unreviewed.
Losing track of which stock and music licenses belong to which delivered project.

The workflow

How video editors keep it organized

A simple, repeatable way to document organization records without special software.

1
Decide the folders your documents fall into
Set up a small, stable set of folders that match the documents video editors actually keeps — Editing service agreements, Stock footage & music licenses, and Client contracts & scopes of work.
2
File each document where it belongs
Put every document into one folder with a clear name, so there is one obvious home for each thing rather than five maybes.
3
Keep versions and dates straight
Name documents with a date so the current version is obvious and superseded ones can be archived, not deleted.
4
Review the structure each quarter
Every few months, clear the inbox of stragglers and confirm the folders still match how the business works.

Record structure

What each record holds

The fields that make a document organization record complete and findable.

Document type: Contract, statement, agreement, receipt, or record — the top-level sort.
Counterparty: The client, vendor, or institution the document relates to.
Date: The document's date, used in the name so the current version is obvious.
Folder: The single folder that document lives in.
Note: Anything you will want to remember when you find it again.
Project / edit: The editing job a record ties to, so assets and subcontractor costs group under one project.
Client: Who commissioned the edit, so a repeat client's jobs stay under one name.
Revision round: Which round a cost or delivery relates to, useful when scope expands over several passes.
License / asset: The stock clip, track, or template a cost covers, kept with the record so proof of license stays attached.

Example setup

An example structure

One way video editors can lay this out in Cash Workspace.

Contracts & agreements

Editing service agreements and Client contracts & scopes of work, named with dates.

Statements & records

Bank/card statements and supporting records, filed by period.

By counterparty

A subfolder per client or vendor where the volume warrants it.

Common mistakes

Common mistakes to avoid

Buying stock footage and plugins without tagging them to the client edit, so per-project costs are impossible to reconstruct.
Filing subscription invoices in email instead of with the finance records, so recurring software charges go unreviewed.
Losing track of which stock and music licenses belong to which delivered project.
Mixing one-off asset purchases with ongoing subscriptions in the same category.
Not recording freelance colorist or sound-subcontractor payments against the project they supported.
Keeping five half-versions of the same document with no clear current one.

How it helps

How Cash Workspace helps

Record it, don’t re-key it

Enter each item once — date, vendor, amount, category — and attach the file to that record. No bank sync, no receipt-reading; the record is deliberate and yours.

One consistent structure

The same categories and folders every month, so video editors always know where a record goes and where to find it later.

Find the right version fast

Documents filed by type and dated in the name, so the current version is obvious and nothing is lost to an inbox.
