Approving a new Contract - Business
There are two situations in which the Business team reviews a contract: after the legal team approves it through the standard pathway, or when the vendor returns the contract during negotiations.
Review the contract information already in the form
The contract Initiator or the Contract manager completes the fields in advance.
Update and upload the contract
Add necessary changes, then download the latest contract by clicking Download current version. Then, upload the updated version in the Attachment tab under Contract Version Upload.
Approve the contract
This forwards the contract to the assigned Vendor for their review.
Note: The approval pathway remains blocked until the vendor approves the contract or requests changes to it. The negotiations occur on the platform.
