SAN MATEO, CA--(Marketwire - Dec 8, 2011) - Selectica, Inc. (NASDAQ: SLTC), provider of cloud-based sales configuration and contract lifecycle management solutions, today rolled out the latest version of Selectica Contract Lifecycle Management 5, further expanding a feature set that had already made Selectica CLM the preferred choice for companies managing sell-side contracts.

"Selectica CLM 5 is very customer-driven, and we're delighted to see how quickly users are embracing the new features," said Joe Lipple, Vice President of Product Management at Selectica.

Mobile: "One-click" contract approvals, rejections, and reassignments from Android, BlackBerry, iPhone, and iPad

E-signature: Seamless integration to the most popular e-signature solutions

Reporting: Significant enhancements to reporting across contract types, creation of tables for external reporting/business intelligence (BI) tools, and the ability to email report results in PDF, CSV, or XML format

Usability: Complete overhaul of the user interface (UI) framework, reducing the number of steps to complete actions and enabling better persistence of user settings

Support for Microsoft Office 2010: Full support of Microsoft Office .docx and .xlsx formats for contract documents, attachments, and imports

Authoring: Contract creation, check-in, and validation without leaving Microsoft Word

Microsoft Word Template Management: Addition of approval lifecycles for contract document templates, template versioning, and "future effectivity" for the effective date range of templates
