Condition check definitions enable you to define logical conditions that indicate when
to change a field value in a record.

A scheduled job, called Contract Compliance Checks in System SchedulerScheduled Jobs, evaluates these condition check definitions daily by running the condition checker. When this job is run, the ConditionChecks Script Include is triggered that runs the Condition Check Definitions. Use this condition
checker to check start dates and end dates and to set expiration levels for contracts.

For example, a contract has a start date of March 1. When the condition checker runs on March
1, it verifies that the contract Substate is
Approved and sets the contract State to
Active based on the Start Date field.

The daily condition checker sets the appropriate expiration level for active contracts based on
the contract End Date. The expiration level can be viewed in the Contracts
list. Knowing the expiration level can help contract managers renew or extend a contract before
it expires.

* [Domain separation and Contract Management](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/OL6eArKTXDj5HvoieipGjA "Domain separation is unsupported in Contract Management. Domain separation enables you to separate data, processes, and administrative tasks into logical groupings called domains. You can control several aspects of this separation, including which users can see and access data.")
