Understanding Commitments

Every Agreement has obligations associated with it. These obligations are known as Commitments. You can manage Commitments by setting up reminders, transaction clauses, review timelines and much more using the "Compliances" tile on the "Home"page.

From the Compliances tile you can:

  • See the complete list of Commitments available, and search Commitments in a variety of ways in the same way as for Agreements through Searching Agreements and Requests.
  • Customize this page. Refer to Navigating in ICI for details.
  • Go to the specific Agreement "Details" page for which the Commitment was created by clicking the "View Details"  icon.
  • Send customized manual notifications for individual or bulk Commitments.
  • View the list of commitments specifically assigned to the logged on user by clicking "Assigned to Me" on Compliances index page. The logged on user can take action on the commitment by clicking the three dots icon next to the commitment and then clicking "Take action on Commitment". 

Adding Commitments to an Agreement

Commitments are reminders of tasks or actions that need to be taken either while creating the Agreement or after its execution. They are added manually to keep track of and ensure that various obligations of the Agreement are being met. While creating the agreement, these Commitments can be towards Rules and Clauses and post-execution for ensuring that certain dates are being met or for exercising the extension option.

You can also add External users and External users with login privilege as business owners of a Commitment. This helps in easy tracking and reporting of Commitments where the external users are supposed to take actions to fulfill those Commitments. This is a configurable feature.

To add a Commitment:

1. Click the "View Details"  icon next to the Agreement you want to add the commitment to. The Agreement "Details"page opens.

2. Click the "Commitments" section in the left navigation. The existing commitments are displayed if any.

3. Click Select Action (3 dots) icon next to the Commitment text. The available actions are displayed in a drop-down.

4. Edit or delete the existing Commitment using the Edit Commitment or Delete Commitment icons.

5. Click the "Add Commitment"  button to add new commitments.

6. Enter the necessary details:

  • Commitment Code: this is a system generated code added automatically when you click the "Add Commitment" button.
  • Description: Type in a detailed description of the action or task.  
  • Commitment Type: select the appropriate option from the drop-down list. This helps you classify the type of Commitment this is, for example if it is transaction or risk-based.
  • Recurring Commitment: You can set the commitments as recurring. Toggle to "Yes" and select the Commitment Frequency. The available options are "Weekly", "Monthly", "Quaterly", "SemiYearly" and "Yearly". For example, if there is a Clause for extension of the Agreement by 1 year, upto 3 times, you can:
    • Add a reminder of 1-2 months before the renewal date
    • Add instructions to say review extension for another year
    • Define start and end dates of the Agreement
    • Set this as a transaction, Recurring Commitment
  • Start Date: Select the Commitment start date

  • Business Owner: click the icon next to the Business Owner field. The Select User window opens. If the user is already provisioned in ICI click the desired user name from the list and click Add. You can also search the user(s) using the Search icon.

Note: It is important to select at least one external user with login privilege or internal user in addition to the external user that is selected. This ensures that the commitment can be acted upon by some user who has access to the functionality.
