4.2.2 Amending a Contract

You can amend certain details of a contract depending upon its authorization status:

  • When you have captured the details of a contract and it is yet to be authorized for the first time you can change all its attributes - financial as well as non-financial, even if the details have been saved once. If accounting entries are involved in the change, the old entries are deleted and new ones passed.
  • Once a contract has been authorized, changes can be made only to the non-financial details of the contract, or the details that do not affect the accounting entries passed by the system.

Make your amendments and save them. If you do not wish to save changes, exit the contract. It will retain the old values.

Note:

If automatic authorization has been enabled for the contract function, as well as the logged in branch, profile of the user who is saving the amended contract record, and the user also has rights for both input and authorize operations, the record will be automatically authorized when the Save operation is performed.
For each amendment, a new version of the contract will be generated.
