Wizards

A wizard is a utility that assists you when authoring a document. There are two types of wizards.

• The document creation wizard.

  This type of wizard automatically guides you through a set of questions or prompts, and you provide responses that support the document that you are creating. The utility automates document operations that determine the composition of the document and inserts known information such as supplier ID, dates, amounts, or items into the text of the document. The system stores contract wizard responses in wizard bind records and uses them when generating a document to process the rules and bind variables for the document configurator.

• The configurator selection wizard.

  This type of wizard helps you determine which document configurator meets your document need. Using a predefined set of questions, you (as an author) are directed to a configurator that you can use to create a document.

You can access document creation and configurator selection wizards using the Manage Contract Library menu option.
