Service Agreements and Contracts
Issue and sign staff contracts.
Build a staff contract template with variables and pay-level line items, generate a PDF for each staff member, and send it for electronic signature.
Overview
Staff Contracts let you build a reusable contract template, auto-fill staff and pay-level detail, generate a PDF, and send it to the staff member for electronic signature.
Signed contracts are stored against the staff record so you keep the version that was agreed.
Before you begin
- Set up the staff profile, employment details, and pay level first.
- Have your contract wording and pay-level line items ready.
- Review the contract wording with your own advisers; BondiByte provides the builder, not legal or industrial-relations advice.
Recommended setup order
- Open Staff Contracts and go to the contract template settings.
- Edit the rich-text template, add your logo, and insert staff and pay-level variables.
- Save a draft, preview a sample, then publish the template version.
- Generate a contract for a staff member and review the PDF.
- Send it for electronic signature.
- Confirm the signed contract is stored against the staff record.
Key fields and settings
Contract template
The reusable staff contract document with rich text, your logo, and variables.

A pay-level or rate line included in the contract for the staff member.
Variable
An auto-inserted value such as staff name, role, start date, or pay-level detail.
Snapshot
The fixed copy stored when a contract is signed, so the agreed version never changes.
Best practice
- Confirm the staff member's pay level before generating the contract.
- Review each generated PDF before sending it for signature.
- Keep one published template version and update it deliberately.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Generating a contract before the staff pay level and employment context are set.
- Relying on default wording without your own review.
- Expecting already-signed contracts to change when you edit the template.
