Field functionality

Which controls appear on a given field is set at the account level. Not every field exposes every control. Contact Curia support if you want fields enabled or disabled for your account.

Required and optional fields

A field marked Required shows that label, right-aligned, in the field header. The report cannot be downloaded until every required field has a value. Required fields are always expanded and cannot be hidden.

Optional fields use a visibility toggle. Toggle on to expand the field and enter a value; toggle off to collapse it and skip it.

The toggle caption shows the current state:

• Not detected when Curia did not find the field in the contract (some fields override this caption with their own).
• Overridden to be shown when you have manually enabled a field that was not detected.
• Overridden to be hidden when you have manually disabled a field that was detected.

Show additional details

Click Show additional details at the bottom of a field to expose its page, reference, comment, risk, recommendation and image controls. Click Hide additional details to collapse them again. Which controls appear depends on the per-field configuration.

Page number

The page number ties the field to a location in the contract PDF. Curia sets it automatically during extraction where it can, and you can change it at any time.

When a page number is set:

• A Jump to page link appears next to the field, which takes the PDF viewer straight to that page.
• The page is included in amendment requests sent to the vendor’s solicitor.
• The page appears in your report, which helps the client find the clause.

To set the page, scroll the PDF viewer to the page you want and click Set page. Curia captures the page the viewer is currently showing. To clear it, click Remove page number.

Reference

The Reference field is a free-text input for a clause number or location reference, for example a Special Condition number. Clear the text to remove the reference.

Comment

The Comment field is a free-text area for notes specific to this contract or client that the standard template content does not cover, for example “The easement is on the western boundary”. Clear the text to remove the comment.

Risk

Set risk from the dropdown: High, Medium or Normal. The selected risk appears in the report as a metadata block alongside the field. Select Normal to clear the risk.

Recommendations

The Recommendations section on a field has three controls: Advice mode, Amendment (the requested change in legal language for the vendor’s solicitor) and Recommendation (the same change in plain English for the client). For the full walkthrough, see Recommendations.

Images

Attach images to a field for screenshots, diagrams or photos that support the entry. Drag-to-reorder works when the field is expanded via Show additional details, and Edit opens any image in the editor for cropping, annotation and highlights. See Managing images for the full image workflow.

Deleting a field

Entries on the Special Conditions tab, and custom entries on the Clauses tab, can be deleted using the trash icon on the field. Click the icon, then click Confirm to remove it. Standard fields cannot be deleted; hide them with the visibility toggle instead.

FAQ

Why can I delete some fields but not others?

Entries on Special Conditions and custom entries on Clauses carry a trash icon. Standard fields elsewhere in the review are part of the template and can only be hidden, not removed.

Why don’t I see a Reference or Comment box on this field?

The controls available on each field are set per account by Curia. If a field does not show Reference or Comment, it is configured to omit them. Contact Curia support to change which controls appear on your account.

Why is Set page disabled or showing the wrong page?

Set page captures the page the PDF viewer is currently showing. Scroll the viewer to the correct page first, then click Set page.
