Contract tracking
Keep each preneed contract, its selections, and its details in one place.
Preneed
Preneed management software for funeral homes
Track every preneed contract in the same system you run at-need cases. When the time comes, convert the contract to an at-need case without re-entering the family and decedent details you already captured.
Who it is for
- Firms keeping preneed contracts in a filing cabinet
- Arrangers who re-key the file when a preneed comes due
- Owners who want preneed and at-need in one system
- Teams that need records to survive staff turnover
What it replaces
- Paper preneed folders held for years
- A separate preneed log apart from the case system
- Rebuilding the case from scratch when it comes due
- Lost details between the sale and the service
How preneed works
A preneed contract lives in FuneralHQ from the day it is sold to the day it converts.
- 01
Record the contract
Capture the preneed family, the selected services and merchandise, and the contract details up front.
- 02
Keep it ready for years
The record stays in the system through the years between the sale and the service, ready to find.
- 03
Convert to at-need
When the family calls, convert the preneed contract into an at-need case in a few steps.
- 04
Reuse what you captured
The family and decedent details carry over, so you continue the case instead of re-entering it.
- 05
Run it like any case
From there it works like any at-need case: documents, payments, balance, and QuickBooks sync.
