1.Runs weekly schedule
Integrate Schedule by Zapier and scheduling tools to start the workflow to run your weekly contract reference refresh.
Update contract type reference table for accounting systems
Automatically refresh contract type definitions across Zapier Tables and Webhooks by Zapier. Update the centralized reference table when the weekly schedule runs—so you can keep picklists and reporting consistent without manual reference updates.
How this automation protects your contract type references
When the contract type reference table drifts from the source, reports and picklists lose consistency. This automation runs on a weekly schedule, fetches contract types, and updates Zapier Tables reference rows—so your team can rely on accurate governance data.

Without Zapier, we would have needed well over 100 employees today just to do what we're doing. We would have been out of business by now.
David Laderberg, VP of Sales
Without having automation, we would have to at least be double our size. Doubling is a bit of a euphemism — I think we would have died or fallen back into oblivion.
Marcelo Lebre, Co-Founder
Zapier helps us close far above 50% more deals than we would without it. It is a key element of our overall strategy and, therefore, of our sales pitch.
Raphael Bochner, Founder and CIO
Zapier gives us unlimited flexibility and creativity. With Zapier, you're like an artist with a blank canvas. I don't know what we'd do without it.
Rishi Shah, CEO and Co-Founder
We don't just want to patch holes; we want to build scalable, future-proof systems. Zapier is helping us do that.
Allen Lai, Head of Customer Experience
