What happens when you submit a contract?

The award is validated and then you're provided with options to update and submit the contract for approval.

• If there are errors from the award validations, review the error messages and resolve them. Then, click Submit Contract on the Review Award page.

• If the award is successfully validated, then, if needed update the contract line name or the bill plan details of the associated contract, and click OK on the Update Contract dialog box.

• If the contract can't be updated due to errors, review and resolve the errors and then click Submit Contract on the Review Award page.

• If the contract is updated successfully, then click OK to validate and submit the contract for approval. If there are errors from the contract validations, then review and resolve the errors in the Contracts work area and then submit the contract for approval from the Contracts work area. If you don't select to submit the contract for approval, then you can do it later from the Contracts work area.
