Where do I record what was decided?

In the meeting minutes tool. This sheet has no decisions field and no action list on purpose, because an agenda is written before the meeting and the minutes after it.

Does it suggest how long an item should take?

No. The minutes column is a number you type and the total adds them up. CompliMaint suggests no duration.

Can I reuse last month’s agenda?

Each sheet is one meeting on one date. Start a new sheet for the next meeting so the old one still says what that meeting was about.

Does it send invitations?

No. Nothing is sent from this product. Print it or copy it into whatever you use to circulate papers.

Meeting agenda

Record sheet

What will be discussed, who is leading each item, how long you are giving it, and what to read first.

An agenda is not the minutes

There is deliberately no decisions field, no actions grid and no outcome column anywhere on this sheet. The moment a document holds both it stops being either: the agenda circulated beforehand and the minutes signed afterwards are different papers, with different authors, written at different times and carrying different weight. Record what happened in the meeting minutes tool, which already turns action items into tracked actions.

The minutes column is the one people skip and then regret

Adding up what you have allocated is the fastest way to discover that a sixty-minute meeting has ninety minutes of agenda on it. The total is a sum of the numbers you typed — CompliMaint suggests no duration for anything and takes no view on whether your meeting is too long.
