How Business Unit Affects Clauses and Other Objects in the Library
The choice of a business unit while creating many Contract Terms Library objects restricts where you can use these objects. Objects affected include clauses, contract terms templates, and Contact Expert rules.
Objects created in a local business unit can only be used in that local business unit. Objects created in a global business unit can be adopted or copied over to other business units provided they are specified as global. This topic details the impacts of the business unit choice on the different library objects.
