Releasing contracts

Releasing a contract moves the contract from a draft state and, based on the assigned contract classification, into a different state.

Note: 

Depending on the contract classification, the contract transitions to one of the following states: Released, Negotiation, Final Approval, or Ready to Activate.

For more information, see About contract states.

To release a contract

  1. Access Contract Management > In Progress tab.
  2. Select a contract with a Draft status (or Addendum or Amendment status) that you want to release.
  3. From the Actions menu, select Release.
