Contract Revisions

You use the Revise Contract dialog box to edit a contract. The system supports the ability to manage multiple revisions of a contract. When you revise a contract, the system duplicates all the information from the original contract including lines, terms and conditions, associated SLA’s, commodities, authorized sites and contract number.

The Revision field in a contract specifies the number of times a contract has been revised. When you insert a new contract record, the revision number is set to zero. After you create a revised contract, the system updates the original contract's Revision field with the next sequential number.

Statuses

A contract must have an approved (APPR) status before you can revise it. The revised version of the contract has an initial status of Pending Revision (PNDREV).

After you finish modifying the revised contract, you can change its status to WAPPR or APPR. When you change the status to APPR, the original contract’s status and line level status(es) change to REVISED. A contract with the status of REVISED cannot be edited or reopened. The system will complete all transactions that were in process for the original contract and post them against the new revision.
