      On the use case mapping page, the Contracts created from contract request check box is visible only if the Contracts core (sn_cm_core) plugin is installed. If you have the Contracts core (sn_cm_core) plugin installed, it means you're already availing the contract pre-signature capabilities. You must clear the Contracts created from contract request check box.

      If the Contracts core (sn_cm_core) plugin is not installed, this check box will not be displayed.
