:   Manage contract renewals with a dedicated Renewal request type, available alongside New contract and Amendment. You can link it to an eligible previous contract. When a renewal is signed, a new executed contract record
    is created with field values copied per configuration. Track the renewal chain from a Contract History tab of the contract repository record.
