Overview
Terms Clauses are used to define Contractual terms related to the Contract. Term Clauses are populated when a Contracts Terms Template is set on the Contract or can be added by creating Terms Clause records directly in the Contract.
When defining a Contract Terms template against the Sales Contract, the clauses from the template specified are added to the Contract and can be managed accordingly. Alternatively, new Terms Clauses can be added outside of any Terms defined by the Contract Terms Template.
NOTE Whether a clause created by the Contract Terms Template can be Edited or Deleted is controlled by flags on the Contract Terms Template.
