Executing Documents

Use the Document Management page (CS_DOC_MAINT) to execute documents.

Navigation:

Supplier Contracts > Create Contracts and Documents > Document Management

Click the Execute Contract button to formalize the completion of the contract. An executed contract is one that has been through all of the collaboration and approval and the owner has determined that it is ready for use in managing contracts with suppliers.

When you execute the document, the system also provides additional methods of maintaining the contract in case changes occur. The system provides an option to send the contract back to Dispatched status. If an amendment is required, the system provides a method for creating and processing the amendment through its life cycle.
