Redwood: Update Schedule for Approved Negotiations

Update and fix expired dates on negotiations that are approved but not published.

The negotiation approval process can have unexpected delays with reviewers, which can result in its dates expiring when it's finally approved. This prevents it from getting published to suppliers. You can now update expired dates on approved negotiations in the status Approved (Not Published) . A banner is displayed on the View Negotiation page, providing an option to update the schedule using the Update Schedule link or the Update Schedule action from the Actions menu.  Both options open a panel drawer where you can modify the negotiation schedule details such as open date, award date, preview date, and close date. Finally, clicking the Update button in the panel drawer automatically applies the new dates.
