The "Configure" tile is used by an Administrator to setup various entities of ICI.
The structure of an Agreement in ICI is based on the concept of Contract Types. These are user-defined workflows (as opposed to rule-based) and are of following types:
Attributes or metadata are the key components of an Agreement. Attribute data is displayed on contracts and associated documents.
Attributes are of two types:
Users with Administrator privileges can only create rules to create Requests or Agreements in ICI using the Rules tile. For example, you can create a Rule for an Agreement to get the Supporting Documents auto attached at the predefined state.
Using Rules you can ensure that:
In ICI, you can create and use the Masterdata for your Agreements.
ICI provides an Alias for Masterdata using the AliasMaster entity so that all Masterdata values that are related can be linked and searched in one-go. You can create an alias on Global Attributes and Template variables (marked as global), not the Contract Type attributes.
ICI has now introduced the capability to copy the role-based team members while creating associations so that the user have the privileges for associated documents as they do for the parent entities.
The Promote to Production (P2P) process of the ICI platform helps to move ICI Configuration from source (Config/UAT) environment to target (production) environment. P2P process enables to selectively move ICI configuration. The Promote Configuration Tool or P2P is designed to accomplish just that.
With the 7.11 release, the Promote to Production (P2P) tool to enable users with the following enhancements:
With the 7.12 release, changes have been made in ICI to support the P2P engine. This functionality, provided to Administrators, can promote ICI configurations/modifications that are made to ICI configurations in pre-production environments to production environments. This tool provides support for contract types, contract type attributes, clauses and templates (along with the documents), notification templates, rules, masterdata, users, user groups and security groups. The Icertis search sync is also supported by the tool.
Note: UI changes on contract type, rule set, notification template are not included. Customers using ICI version before 7.12 need to upgrade for this capability.
ICI now provides support for larger files using the following keys:
Users can now:
ICI supports virus scanning of large files if the virus scan feature is enabled.

6. Toggle the Enable Large File Upload to Yes. This attribute provides support for large files in File Selection and File Path attributes.

7. Click Save to save your changes and Publish.
Users can define configurable labels for peer associations between existing contracts by configuring the “Linkage Type” masterdata. The configurable labels define various business relationships in the context of contracts. For example, “Related To”, “Linked To”, “Addendum Of”, “Addendum To”, “Parent To”, “Child To”, and so on. The labels can be activated or deactivated as per business requirements.
The configurable labels support the existing two-way linkage and self-linkage types. The amendments on executed agreements will be associated as a peer, with default peer linkage type label, defined in default peer mapping for amendment.
Users can select configurable peer linkage type labels in the “Linkage Type” drop-down list and view them on various ICI functionalities such as:
The Linkage Type and its sub menu tiles are enabled through technical configuration for the instance.
