Contract Changes - Change Copies/Variants


BASIC principles:

the method of making changes to the contract and related tables (e.g. the subject matter, the guarantee of the contract, etc.) depends on the detailed status of the contract:

  • if the flag Change without Protocol is set on the detailed contract status (Change without Protocol)=Y:

    • it is possible to edit cards if the logged-in user has the appropriate write permissions

  • if the flag Change without Protocol is set on the detailed contract status=N:

    • generally direct editing is not allowed. If the user wants to make a change to the contract (and its parts), the user does not make the changes on the original contract, but on its copy, then he has the option to decide whether to reflect the changes in the original or not.

    • in User Setup, it is possible to allow an exception for a given user to edit:

      • financed Object via Allow Object Edit without Change Copy.Contract

      • guarantee Guarantee Editing Without Change Copy

      • flagif the flags are enabled to Y, the user can edit the entity without creating a change copy/variant even if there is Change without Protocol =N on the detailed contract status


A copy of the contract can be:

  • Change Copy

  • Variant
