    • As a case owner or fulfiller, initiate a self-served contract for the case you are working on. Self-served contracts are submitted when you want own paper based contract documents to be sent for review.

    Vorbereitungen

    Before initiating a self-serve contract request, ensure you have created contract types and templates for them. For more information, see Create a contract type and Configure templates for a contract and amendment request in Contract Management Pro.

    Ensure that the initiate contract button has been added to your workspace. For more information, see Add a workspace action button for initiating a contract request.

    Ergebnisse

    A contract request is initiated and opens on a new tab displaying the contract request details.

    If there are validation errors, the contract request is created in Draft state. If there are no validation errors, the contract request is created in Work in progress state.

    On the Contract request form, you can assign the contract request, add collaborators, add users to the watch list, change the signature type, and also update the start date and end date.
