== Uploading Agreements&nbsp; ==
+
=== Creating a Contract Type Entity for Legacy Upload ===
  
This section demonstrates with an example how to upload plain Agreements for a particular Contract Type.
+
To upload legacy records in ICI, there must be a relevant contract type configured in the ICI as per the specific entity type needed for legacy records.
  
=== 1. Search or Create a Contract Type for the Agreements with Workflow&nbsp; ===
+
If the contract type does not exist in ICI, you must create the contract type for the entity of legacy records. You must configure the details of legacy records as the attributes in the ICI contract type.
  
Identify an existing Contract Type in ICM for which to upload the Agreements. If that Contract Type does not exist, you need to create it using ''Create Contract Type'' on ''Configuration'' page in ICM. If the ''Enable Approval Workflow'' flag is set to ''Yes'', it means that the workflow is enabled for that Contract Type.
+
'''Configuring Contract Type with or without Approval Workflow'''
<div class="image-green-border">[[File:CreateContractType LegacyUpload C7SP6.png|LegacyUpload_CreateContractType.png]]</div> <div class="image-green-border">&nbsp;</div>
+
#Create a Contract Type named as ''Legacy Contract''&nbsp;with the attributes as can be seen under the ''Selected Attribute'' tab in the screenshot. The ICM name for this Contract Type is ''ICMLegacyContract''.Create a ''Legacy Ref Id'' attribute which will be used as a Primary Key in the metadata file for this Contract Type.
+
#Copy the Agreement PDF at the location accessible by the task server.
+
  
=== 2. Create Metadata File for Agreements&nbsp; ===
+
You can upload entities such as Associations, Masterdata with or without Approval Workflow using Legacy Upload.
 +
<div class="note-box">'''Note:''' "Agreement" Contract Types have Approval Workflow mandatory.</div>
 +
You can automatically attach the Approval workflow to an entity while processing the Legacy Upload batch. All you have to do is enable the approval workflow in the contract type by setting the Enable Approval Workflow attribute value to Yes.
  
Important things to note for the metadata file:&nbsp;
+
For entities that have the Enable Approval Workflow attribute value set to No in their contract type, the approval workflow will not follow automatically. You can enable the workflow manually, whenever needed, by clicking the Resume WF under the three dots.
  
*The metadata file must contain the display names of the attributes spelled exactly as they are present in ICM. The display names are case-sensitive.&nbsp;
+
When an Entity that has been uploaded without workflow is viewed in ICI, it will not have any buttons visible on the UI.
*It is not necessary to include all the ICM attributes in the metadata file. However, the following attributes and their values must be provided in the data file- ''Name, File Path, Business Status,&nbsp;''and&nbsp;''Type of Paper.&nbsp;''Some of these may be backend attributes that are not visible on the UI.&nbsp;
+
  
To create the metadata file for ICMLegacyContract Contract Type:
+
To create a contract type:
  
1.&nbsp;&nbsp;Create an Excel file with .''xlsx'' extension and save it with the appropriate name, for example ''ICMLegacy_Contract_single .''
+
1. '''Click '''the&nbsp;"Configure"'''''&nbsp;'''''> ''&nbsp;''"Contract Types"&nbsp;navigation menu on the top of the&nbsp;page.&nbsp;The "Contract Types" index page opens.

 +
'''5. Click'''&nbsp;"Next". The "Attributes" tab opens.
  
2.&nbsp;&nbsp;Edit the same file to create columns that are essentially the ICM attributes for ICMLegacyContract Contract Type, and enter their values for the legacy Agreement that you want to upload. To ensure that you use the attributes correctly, switch to ICM and navigate to Configurations and then to&nbsp;Contract Types, and Click View Record to view the details of ICMLegacyContract. Then go to Attributes tab to see all the Selected Attributes for that CT.
+
'''6. Select''' and add the Attributes which are required for the legacy records you are uploading, to map them to the ICI Contract Type.
  
3.&nbsp;In the metadata file the first row is a header row wherein you need to provide the exact Display Names of all or the desired attributes from ICM in consecutive columns.&nbsp;
+
'''7. Click'''&nbsp;"Next" and enter the details on the Associations, Display Preference, and Team tabs to complete the contract type creation following the standard ICI workflow.

== Uploading Agreements with Team, Notes and Commitments ==
+
'''Configuring Contract Type with Mandatory Associations'''
  
You can add Team members, Notes, and Commitments along with the legacy Agreements from within the same metadata file.
+
There may be cases where any associated documents are required before an Agreement can move to the&nbsp;Executed, Expired or Terminated&nbsp;state. In that case, you can defer the workflow for the Agreement while uploading, then upload the required Association with workflow attached, and then enable the workflow for the Agreement when needed.<br/> Whether an Association is mandatory or not can be seen in ICI in the following 2 ways:<br/> 1. If the "Is Mandatory" flag is set to&nbsp;Yes&nbsp;while adding an Association for a particular Agreement Contract Type, an Association is mandatory.&nbsp;
<div class="note-box">'''Note''': Uploading the team, notes or commitments must be done at the first time when uploading the Agreements. Updating these entities later after Agreements are uploaded is not supported.</div>  
+
<div class="image-green-border">[[File:8.0-Legacy Upload-2-CreateCT-Associations.PNG|620px|8.0-Legacy Upload-2-CreateCT-Associations.PNG]]</div>  
=== 3. Create Metadata File with Team, Notes, and Commitments&nbsp; ===
+
2. If Prerequisite or Post requisite is selected in the Constraints drop-down list while creating an Associated Document Contract Type, an Association is mandatory.

<div class="image-green-border">[[File:8.0-Legacy Upload-3-CreateCT-Associations.PNG|620px|8.0-Legacy Upload-3-CreateCT-Associations.PNG]]</div>
 +
== Creating a Batch for an Entity ==
  
Edit the same Agreements metadata file ICMLegacy_Contract_single to add more sheets for Team, Notes, and Commitments.
+
Once the relevant contract type is present in the ICI, you can create a new batch to upload the legacy records in the ICI from the Legacy Upload page.
<div class="note-box">'''Note''': The sheets always must be named and formatted (irrespective of the client instance environment) as specified in the respective steps below.</div> <div class="image-green-border">&nbsp;</div> <div class="image-green-border">[[File:SP6 LegacyUpload CreateMetadata.png|LegacyUpload CreateMetadata.png]]</div> <div class="image-green-border">&nbsp;</div>

 +
=== Creating a Batch for Amendments ===
 +
 
 +
The agreement contract type for uploading Amendments is already available in the ICI when the parent agreements were created or unloaded. You can create a set of agreements that you want to upload amendments to, using the Saved Search capability.
 +
 
 +
To create an amendment batch:
 +
 
 +
#'''Navigate '''to the "Create Batch" page as explained in the above section.
 +
#'''Select''' the "Legacy Upload Action" from the dropdown. For example, "Create Amendment". The fields to select Saved Search and Contract Type name are displayed.
 +
#'''Select''' a "Saved Search". For example, "All Executed Agreements".
 +
 
 +
You must create a saved search beforehand to group the agreement records to which you want to add the amendments through Legacy Upload. For example, here, configure the Saved Search for all Executed Agreements. The system would ignore all statuses other than Executed.
 +
 
 +
Refer to Saved Searches for more details on creating a saved search.
 +
<ol start="4">
 +
<li>'''Select''' the "Contract Type Name". The dropdown will show all agreement contract types from the selected Saved Search. For example, select "ICMMSA".</li>
 +
<li>'''Click'''&nbsp;"Next" and complete the batch creation for Amendments following the same process as for the creation of the agreement batch.</li>
 
</ol>
 
</ol>
  
The following screenshot of&nbsp;the ''ICMLegacy_Contract_single'' shows the Commitment sheet and the data.

<div class="image-green-border">[[File:SP6 LegacyUpload Create Commitments Metadata 2.PNG|950px|LegacyUpload Create Commitments Metadata 2.PNG]]</div> <div class="image-green-border">&nbsp;</div>
+
=== 4. Create Mapping File ===
+
  
Important things to note for the mapping file:
+
Before you proceed to upload Associations using the Legacy Upload, ensure that the parent Agreements are already uploaded. Also, ensure that the&nbsp;Associated Document Contract Type has been added in the Associations tab in the parent Agreement Contract Type.
  
*Mapping file must contain the ICM names (not display names) of the attributes spelled exactly as they are present in ICM. The ICM names are case-sensitive.
+
You can upload Associations with or without Approval Workflow using Legacy Upload in the ICI.
*You can bypass validations for mandatory attributes in the mapping file by providing their ICM names in the Exclude Mandatory Validations column. However, it cannot skip generic validations for data types.  
+
  
To create the mapping file:&nbsp;
+
Associations can be mapped with their parent agreements using a Saved Search capability. A set of agreements can be created for which you want to upload peer associations by configuring a Saved Search beforehand. The auto-generated workbook will contain the details of the agreement from the selected saved search as the parent agreements. These details would help users to find the records in the ICI and map them with the Association agreement code in the workbook.
  
#Create an Excel file with .xlsx extension and save it with the name, ''Mappings_Acme_agreements.''

To create an Association batch:
#''Edit the file to create columns and provide their details/values as specified below:''

*''C:\Integration'' is the UNCFolderpath where you uploaded the legacy agreement PDF.  
+
#'''Select''' the "Legacy Upload Action" from the dropdown. For example, "Create Association". The fields to select a Saved Search and parent Contract Type are displayed.
*''ICMLegacyContract'' is the Contract Type Name.
+
#'''Select''' a "Saved Search" to pick a set of parent agreements.&nbsp;&nbsp;  
*''ICMLegacyRefId'' under the ''Primary Key'' column is the unique attribute that you created in for ''ICMLegacyContract'' Contract Type.

==== Creating a Batch for Peer Associations ====
  
Now that the metadata and mapping files are created for ''ICMLegacyContract'' Contract Type, the relevant Agreements can be uploaded using the Legacy Upload feature on the ICM UI.
+
You can upload associated documents as peer associations to agreements using Legacy Upload.
  
To upload the Agreements:&nbsp;
+
#'''Follow''' the same process explained in the section "Creating a Batch for Associations" till the "Association" field.
 +
#'''Select''' the "Association". For example, ICMAutomationSupplierMaster.
  
#'''Click&nbsp;'''the&nbsp;''User Administration&nbsp;''tile on the Dashboard.&nbsp;  
+
When you select the peer Associated Document Contract Type in the "Association" field, the "Association" field will reflect this relationship for the selected parent Contract Type and Associated Document Contract Type combination.

=== Preparing the datasheet for ICI entities ===
  
&nbsp;
+
The datasheet in the auto-generated workbook contains details specific to&nbsp;the entity and contract type. Also, the data-sheet is named after the selected entity contract type. For example, the datasheet for the Masterdata- ICIStateMaster, is named as same as the contract type name which is ICIStateMaster.

<div class="note-box">'''Note:''' The datasheet reflects the attributes as they are present on the UI for creating the respective entity.</div>  
=== Upload Agreements with mandatory Associations ===
+
==== Preparing the datasheet for Agreement, Amendment, Associated Documents and Masterdata ====
  
There may be cases where any associated documents are required before an Agreement can move to the ''Executed'' state. In that case, you can defer the workflow for the Agreement while uploading, then upload the required Association with workflow attached, and then enable the workflow for the Agreement when needed.<br/> Whether an Association is mandatory or not can be seen in ICM in the following 2 ways:<br/> If ''Is Mandatory'' flag is set to Yes while adding an Association for a particular Agreement Contract Type, an Association is mandatory. See the screenshot below:
+
The datasheet for Entities- Agreement, Amendment, Associated Documents, and Masterdata, contains the attributes you selected from the contract type when creating the batch. These attributes will appear in the datasheet in the order of their selection.
  
&nbsp;
+
The datasheet for these entities also contains the necessary backend attributes required for the processing which may or may not be visible on the UI such as Business Status, Org Unit, Type Of Paper, and File Name. The Type Of Paper attribute has the default value as Third Party. The datasheet for Amendment has additional attributes Is Amendment and Use Amendment Template.

+
#Follow the same steps&nbsp;to create metadata and mapping file for the Agreement as described in the Uploading Agreements section.  
+
#While creating the batch for uploading the Agreement, '''select''' the ''Defer Workflow'' check box so that the workflow is not attached to the Agreements while uploading. This check box controls the attachment of approval workflow to a particular batch.  
+
  
 +
The contract type datasheet for Amendment and Peer Association contains prefilled details for the parent agreements of the selected contract type from the selected saved search. The details comprise pipe-delimited values of Parent Agreement Name, Agreement Code and Sysid within a single column, which would help the system easily find parent records in the ICI. &nbsp;

 +
<div class="image-green-border">[[File:7.16 Legacy 26.png|720px|7.16 Legacy 26.png]]</div>

 +
<div class="image-green-border">[[File:7.16 Legacy 27.png|720px|7.16 Legacy 27.png]]</div>
 +
===== Linkage type support for peer associations =====
 +
 +
The datasheet for uploading peer associations also contains the Linkage Type column with the values Parent'', ''Child, and Peer. When there is the Linkage Type Masterdata configured in the ICI, the Linkage Type column will reflect the values from that masterdata.
 +
 +
After the successful batch upload for peer associations, the appropriate linkage-type relationship is automatically established for the legacy records based on their contract types.
 +
 +
*For the self-linkage type, the associations will be linked as peers to the agreements of the same contract type. For example, the SOW agreement instance will be linked to another instance of SOW with linkage type as a peer.
 +
*For the two-way linkage-type, the base agreement and association will be linked as parent and child respectively. For example, when the user selects the linkage type as Child while uploading SOW legacy record, the linked MSA record will be automatically updated as a parent based on the two-way linkage-type configuration.
 +
<div class="image-green-border">[[File:7.16 Legacy 24.png|720px|7.16 Legacy 24.png]]</div>

'''Adding Team members, Notes, and Commitments'''
 +
 +
You can also add Team members'', ''Notes'','' and Commitments if applicable to the legacy record using the same workbook by adding the details in the respective sheets at the same time when uploading the legacy records.
 +
 +
The worksheets for adding the details for Team members'', ''Notes, and Commitments are part of the workbook.

In the following sections for uploading other entities, the same notes and considerations for the Metadata and Mapping Files, and data validations apply as detailed in the above section for uploading the Agreements.
+
  
= Uploading Associations&nbsp; =
+
The datasheet for entities User Provisioning, Clauses, and Templates reflects all attributes from the selected entity contract type in the same display sequence as they appear on the UI for that entity.
  
Before uploading the Associations, the parent Agreement must be uploaded first.<br/> You need to create separate metadata file for Associations, and one such file can contain Associations for one Association Contract type. This section demonstrates with an example how to upload an Association for the previously uploaded Agreement that is seen in ICM as ''Acme Corp Legacy Contract'' – ''ICMLegacyContract_1''.<br/> There can be 2 scenarios for uploading Associations:&nbsp;With Workflow and Without Workflow.
+
In addition to contact type attributes, the datasheet for these entities also contains the user-selected attributes from the respective extended entity masterdata at the time of batch creation.

===== Observations and assumptions&nbsp;for clauses batch =====
  
Search an existing Associated Document Contract Type in ICM for which to upload the Associations. If that Contract Type does not exist, you need to create it using Create Contract Type on Configuration page in ICM. If the Enable Approval Workflow flag is set to Yes, it means that the workflow is enabled for that Contract Type.

=== 2. Create Metadata File for Associations&nbsp; ===
+
*A&nbsp;Primary Clause&nbsp;and a&nbsp;Linked Primary Clause&nbsp;should not be a part of the same batch. The Primary Clause must be created first and then it should be used as a&nbsp;Linked Primary Clause.
 +
*A clause with&nbsp;Is Alternate Clause&nbsp;value marked as&nbsp;TRUE&nbsp;and the clause that it is the&nbsp;Alternate of&nbsp;should not be part of the same batch.
 +
*A clause with&nbsp;Is Dependent Clause&nbsp;value marked as&nbsp;TRUE&nbsp;and the clause which it&nbsp;Depends On&nbsp;should not be part of the same batch.&nbsp;
 +
*Tags must be on the same line in the template document. Tagging will not function if the tags are on separate lines. For example, if the closing tag&nbsp;is on the next line, tagging does not work.
 +
*There should be no non-breaking spaces (ASCII value xA0) within XML tags. Ensure to replace them with regular spaces in XML tags. Using deactivated clause groups is allowed.
 +
*Template Variables cannot be tagged in a clause. If tagged, the template variable will be treated as plain text and no exceptions are triggered.
 +
*The user importing templates and clauses must have permissions on the respective tiles, otherwise, they will not be able to view them in Icertis Experience for Word.
 +
*Only the creation of a clause is supported. Bulk edits and updating edited clause text in templates where the clause is referred are currently not supported.
  
To create the metadata file for ''ICMLegacyAssocDocWF1'' Contract Type:
+
===== Observations and Assumptions&nbsp;for templates batch =====
  
#Create an Excel file with .xlsx extension and save it with the name ''ICMLegacy_AcmeAssociation''.
+
The following observations and assumptions need to be taken into consideration while uploading templates using the Legacy Upload tool:
#Edit the same file to create columns that are essentially the ICM attributes for ''ICMLegacyAssocDocWF1'' Contract Type, and enter their values for the associated document that you want to upload.
+
#Create an additional column named ''ParentInstance_PK'' and provide the value of the Primary Key of the parent Agreement (''Legacy Ref Id'' for ''ICMLegacyContract Contract Type'').
+
  
The following screenshot of the Association’s metadata file ''ICMLegacy_AcmeAssociation'' shows the attributes and highlights the Primary Key of the parent Agreement.
+
*If tagging fails for a part of the batch, only the Passed count gets updated while the Failed count is not updated. However, the failure count can be inferred.  
<div class="image-green-border">[[File:SP6 LegacyUpload Create Metadata file for Associations.png|LegacyUpload Create Metadata file for Associations.png]]</div> <div class="image-green-border">&nbsp;</div>
+
*The entire XML should be on the same line. Tagging will not function if the tags are split into separate lines.  
=== 3. Changes to the mapping file for Associations ===
+
*There should be no non-breaking spaces (ASCII value is xA0) within XML tags. Ensure to replace them with regular spaces in XML tags.&nbsp;  
 +
*Primary and alternate templates cannot be a part of the same batch.
 +
*Threading causes some issues. Further, if there has been an error in tagging, it is not possible to rollback or delete instances created using batch upload.
 +
*Ensure each template is given a unique name. If two templates are uploaded with the same name, then one of the entries fails. However, the Error file does not show any corresponding error message.
  
Open the same mapping file (''Mappings_Acme_agreements'') created while uploading the Agreement, and edit it to provide details for binding the Associated Document Contract Type with the parent Contract Type.
+
===== Mandatory tags for clause document =====
<div class="image-green-border">[[File:SP6 LegacyUpload MappingFile WithAssociations.png|LegacyUpload MappingFile WithAssociations.png]]</div>
+
Add another row as highlighted in the above screenshot:
+
  
*'''ICMLegacyAssocDocWF1''' is the ''Contract Type Name&nbsp;''for the Associated Document Contract Type.
+
The mandatory attribute tags are available in the XML format for tagging inside clauses and templates.
*'''ICMLegacyRefId''' under the Primary Key column is the mapping attribute for ''ICMLegacyAssocDocWF1'' Contract Type.
+
*'''ICMLegacyContract''' under the Parent Entity Name is the parent Contract Type name.
+
*'''ICMLegacyRefId''' under the ''Parent Primary Key'' column is the mapping attribute for ''ICMLegacyContract'' Contract Type (parent).

=== Upload Associations without Workflow&nbsp; ===
+
  
You can create the Associations for which the approval workflow is not enabled in ICM. This is configured in ICM by setting the ''Enable Approval Workflow'' flag to No for the relevant Contract Type. It means that the Associations for that Contract Type will not follow the approval workflow automatically.

== Uploading the batch ==
#Edit the same file to create columns that are essentially the ICM attributes for ''ICMLegacyContract'' (parent) Contract Type, and enter their values as required.
+
  
You may refer to the metadata file for the parent Agreement to create the Amendments metadata file, and add/remove columns or change their values as required. Name, File Path, Legacy Ref Id (or any other existing unique attribute), Business Status, and Type of Paper are mandatory attributes for Amendments as well.

After the successful processing, the agreements batch status moves to "Workflow Processed" with the attached workflow.
 +
<div class="image-green-border">Uploading Peer association with the create Wizard flow along with Linkage Type.</div>
 +
*In the case of Peer associations with create wizard flow, you can first upload the association batch with all the details input in the workbook on the Upload Batch window. System would process the Association by creating the instance on the ICI Application, the status of the batch would show as "Workflow Processed".
 +
*Once the Peer Association are successfully uploaded in the ICI the system would automatically process with linking with its Parent agreement with linkage type defined in the workbook. Once the batch is processed the status of the batch would show as "Completed".
  
The following screenshot of the Amendment metadata file ''ICMLegacy_AcmeAmendment'' shows the attributes and highlights the Primary Key of the parent Agreement (''ParentInstance_PK''), and of the Amendment (''Legacy Ref Id'') that is being uploaded. The Primary Key of the Amendment (''Legacy Ref Id'') can be used as a mapping attribute for the relevant associations, and other entities that may be dependent upon the Amendment.

=== 2. Changes to the mapping file for Amendments&nbsp; ===
+
  
Open the same mapping file (''Mappings_Acme_agreements'') created while uploading the Agreement, and edit it to provide details for binding the Amendment Contract Type with the parent Agreement Contract Type.<br/> Add another row as described below:
+
To upload the batch for clauses and templates, follow the same process as for uploading batch for other entities.
  
*'''ICMLegacyContractAmendment''' is the ''Contract Type Name'' for the Amendment.
+
The ICI will auto initiate the tagging of attributes in clauses and templates upon the batch creation to avoid manual efforts.
*'''ICMLegacyRefId''' under the ''Primary Key'' column is the unique attribute for '''ICMLegacyContractAmendment''' Contract Type.
+
*'''ICMLegacyContract''' under the ''Parent Entity Name'' is the parent Contract Type name.
+
*'''ICMLegacyRefId''' under the ''Parent Primary Key'' column is the unique attribute for '''ICMLegacyContract''' Contract Type (parent).

=== 3. Upload the Amendments and view in ICM ===
+
=== Status changes for the processed batch ===
  
Follow the same steps on the UI for uploading the associations as they are for uploading the agreements.<br/> Only, ensure that you select the Amendment Contract Type while creating the batch. In the current example, select the Contract Type Name as ''ICMLegacyContractAmendment''.
+
The entities which support uploading with or without attached approval workflow, are processed based on their approval workflow configuration by following the deferred workflow steps. The status of the batch processing for such entities goes from Completed, WF Differed to Workflow processed.

= Uploading Masterdata =
+
  
This section demonstrates with an example how to upload the Masterdata. Masterdata is uploaded independently as it is not related to any other entities. So there is no need for the mapping file.<br/> There can be 2 scenarios for uploading Masterdata – With Workflow and Without Workflow.
+
For entities that do not need approval workflow, the batch status will move to "Completed" on successful processing.
  
=== 1. Search or Create a Contract Type for the Masterdata with workflow ===
+
&nbsp;
  
Search an existing Masterdata Contract Type in ICM for which to upload the data. If that Contract Type does not exist, you need to create it using Create Contract Type on ''Configuration'' page in ICM. If the ''Enable Approval Workflow'' flag is set to ''Yes'', it means that the workflow is enabled for that Contract Type.

Legacy Upload 

Organizations may have a large number of existing Agreements that are created outside of ICI platform. These are henceforth referred to as Legacy Agreements. Organizations may want to import these Agreements to ICI to leverage its vast capabilities and manage all Agreements within a single platform.

ICI legacy Migration tool helps in migrating these large volumes of legacy Contracts from the Customer system to ICI Application with accuracy and efficiency which helps in creating a central repository. This in turn helps in a shift from Paper base to digitalization.

The highlights of the ICI Legacy Migration Tool are:

  • Uploading entities such as Agreements and their respective Teams, Notes, and Commitments in bulk.
  • Uploading Associations, Masterdata, User Information, and Amendments in bulk.
  • Bulk Clause and Template creation, with the power of Attribute/metadata tagging.
  • Enhanced validations, including the ability to exclude the specified attributes from being validated.
  • Ability to view logs and report success and failure statuses on legacy UI.
  • Record level email notification trigger capability as per customer requirement.
  • Reporting capabilities on the uploaded legacy records.
  • Email Notifications for batch initiation and completion.
  • Support of Peer Association & Linkage types, ensuring no manual work post legacy upload.
  • Enabling legacy upload of Agreements with Status as Expired, Terminated.
  • Support uploading of files from Subfolder from Task server and blob storage repository.
  • Records can be uploaded bypassing the workflow state transitions to the desired state, thereby improving the upload speed.
  • An administrator can select the date, time, priority, batch size, and memory impact so that a user can set the guardrails for prioritization of the queue. This benefits in improving the performance, having greater control over the system resources and setting up jobs in a predictable manner.
  • Customer Support Engineers can detect the exact point of failure and take system-based or manual corrective action depending on the type of error and clear the queue if required.
  • System Administrators can provision resources on-demand based on the priority and complexity of the batch. This will help efficient executions, increased resource utilization, reduced troubleshooting, and reduced complexity.
  • System Administrators can update operations seamlessly without downtime and reduce the impact on end-users during the update process.

Important Considerations 

  • Only an Administrator can perform a Legacy Upload of the entities. 
  • The absolute path where the Agreements and other entities documents are saved must be accessible by the task service of the ICI instance. This must be ensured while configuring the ICI instance. 
  • The Data files created in Excel can only have a .xlsx extension. 
  • For Agreements, only .pdf files are supported. For Associations, several file formats such as .pdf, .docx, .doc, .xlsx, .jpeg, .png and .zip are supported. 
  • Contract types for the Agreements and other entities that you are trying to upload must be present in the Published state in ICI.
  • To upload any Associations, ensure that the relevant contract type has been added in the Associations tab in the parent contract type.
  • An attribute that will always have a unique value must be present in ICI so that the relevant value can be used as a Primary Key to map other entities with that Agreement. If such an attribute does not already exist, you must create it. The unique value attribute can be a backend attribute that may not be visible on the UI. However, the Agreement Code attribute, though unique, contains a system-generated value that is generated only after an Agreement has been created thus, cannot be used as a Primary Key for the contract type.
  • When adding batches for uploading, it is advisable not to schedule too many batches at close intervals and configure schedules to line-up batches to be uploaded at different times to optimize the processing speed.
  • Since this is only a provisioning tool, as such any sort of updates to uploaded records are not supported.

Uploading Entities Using Legacy Upload

You can use the utility to upload the following entities: 

  • Agreements with Team, Notes, and Commitment
  • Amendments with Team, Notes, and Commitment
  • Associated Documents (with or without workflow)
  • Masterdata (with or without workflow)
  • User Information (with or without Extended Attributes)
  • Clauses (with or without Extended Attributes)
  • Templates (with or without Extended Attributes)

The Legacy Upload tool follows a simple workflow to upload the aforementioned entities.

The workflow for the Legacy Upload process at a glance:

7.16 Legacy 1.png

 

Creating a Contract Type Entity for Legacy Upload

To upload legacy records in ICI, there must be a relevant contract type configured in the ICI as per the specific entity type needed for legacy records.

If the contract type does not exist in ICI, you must create the contract type for the entity of legacy records. You must configure the details of legacy records as the attributes in the ICI contract type.

Configuring Contract Type with or without Approval Workflow

You can upload entities such as Associations, Masterdata with or without Approval Workflow using Legacy Upload.

Note: "Agreement" Contract Types have Approval Workflow mandatory.

You can automatically attach the Approval workflow to an entity while processing the Legacy Upload batch. All you have to do is enable the approval workflow in the contract type by setting the Enable Approval Workflow attribute value to Yes.

For entities that have the Enable Approval Workflow attribute value set to No in their contract type, the approval workflow will not follow automatically. You can enable the workflow manually, whenever needed, by clicking the Resume WF under the three dots.

When an Entity that has been uploaded without workflow is viewed in ICI, it will not have any buttons visible on the UI.

To create a contract type:

1. Click the "Configure" >  "Contract Types" navigation menu on the top of the page. The "Contract Types" index page opens.

8.0-Legacy Upload-CT-Menu.PNG
 

2. Click "Create" on the far right in the title bar. The "Create Contract Type" page opens.

8.0-Legacy Upload-CT-Index.PNG
 

3. Click the Contract Type of the entity for which you want to upload legacy records. For example,  "Associated Documents" Contract Type.

8.0-Legacy Upload-CT-Create1.PNG
 

4. Enter the "Contract Type Name" and other required details in the "Details" tab. Toggle the "Enable Approval Workflow" to "Yes" if you want to enable the workflow for approval for this contract type with the creation.

8.0-Legacy Upload-CT-Create-Details.PNG

5. Click "Next". The "Attributes" tab opens.

6. Select and add the Attributes which are required for the legacy records you are uploading, to map them to the ICI Contract Type.

7. Click "Next" and enter the details on the Associations, Display Preference, and Team tabs to complete the contract type creation following the standard ICI workflow.

Refer to the "Creating Contract Type" for further details on how to configure contract types.

Note: You do not need to create a contract type for amendments as the required contract type is already available when the parent agreement records were created.

 

Configuring Contract Type with Mandatory Associations

There may be cases where any associated documents are required before an Agreement can move to the Executed, Expired or Terminated state. In that case, you can defer the workflow for the Agreement while uploading, then upload the required Association with workflow attached, and then enable the workflow for the Agreement when needed.
Whether an Association is mandatory or not can be seen in ICI in the following 2 ways:
1. If the "Is Mandatory" flag is set to Yes while adding an Association for a particular Agreement Contract Type, an Association is mandatory. 

8.0-Legacy Upload-2-CreateCT-Associations.PNG

2. If Prerequisite or Post requisite is selected in the Constraints drop-down list while creating an Associated Document Contract Type, an Association is mandatory.

8.0-Legacy Upload-3-CreateCT-Associations.PNG

Creating a Batch for an Entity

Once the relevant contract type is present in the ICI, you can create a new batch to upload the legacy records in the ICI from the Legacy Upload page.

Creating a Batch for Agreements

1. Click the "Admin" main navigation menu on the top of the page.  The sub-menu tiles dropdown opens.

2. Click "Admin Task". The "Admin Task" page opens.

5. Identify the entity for legacy records and select the "Legacy Upload Action" accordingly from the dropdown. For example, select "Create Agreement" when you are creating a batch of agreements.

8.0-Legacy Upload-1-CreateBatch-LU.PNG

6. Select the "Contract Type Name". The dropdown will show all agreement contract types configured in ICI. For example, ICMMSA

7. Click "Next". The "Attributes" tab opens. The "Available Attribute" section shows all attributes from the selected agreement contract type in the left column. The mandatory attributes like "Name" are already populated in the "Selected Attribute" list

8. Select the attributes for which you want to upload the legacy data in the current batch from the "Available Attribute" section and add to the "Selected Attribute" section using the action arrows. For example, select attributes Name, Contract Description, and Effective Date.

Note: Mandatory and Dependent attributes will be automatically included in the generated workbook.

9. Click "Generate Workbook". The workbook template is generated in the Microsoft Excel format and downloaded at the pre-set download location on your system.

Creating a Batch for Amendments

The agreement contract type for uploading Amendments is already available in the ICI when the parent agreements were created or unloaded. You can create a set of agreements that you want to upload amendments to, using the Saved Search capability.

To create an amendment batch:

  1. Navigate to the "Create Batch" page as explained in the above section.
  2. Select the "Legacy Upload Action" from the dropdown. For example, "Create Amendment". The fields to select Saved Search and Contract Type name are displayed.
  3. Select a "Saved Search". For example, "All Executed Agreements".

You must create a saved search beforehand to group the agreement records to which you want to add the amendments through Legacy Upload. For example, here, configure the Saved Search for all Executed Agreements. The system would ignore all statuses other than Executed.

Refer to Saved Searches for more details on creating a saved search.

  1. Select the "Contract Type Name". The dropdown will show all agreement contract types from the selected Saved Search. For example, select "ICMMSA".
  2. Click "Next" and complete the batch creation for Amendments following the same process as for the creation of the agreement batch.

Creating a Batch for Associations

Before you proceed to upload Associations using the Legacy Upload, ensure that the parent Agreements are already uploaded. Also, ensure that the Associated Document Contract Type has been added in the Associations tab in the parent Agreement Contract Type.

You can upload Associations with or without Approval Workflow using Legacy Upload in the ICI.

Associations can be mapped with their parent agreements using a Saved Search capability. A set of agreements can be created for which you want to upload peer associations by configuring a Saved Search beforehand. The auto-generated workbook will contain the details of the agreement from the selected saved search as the parent agreements. These details would help users to find the records in the ICI and map them with the Association agreement code in the workbook.

To create an Association batch:

  1. Navigate to the "Create Batch" page as explained in the "Creating a Batch for Agreement" section above.
  2. Select the "Legacy Upload Action" from the dropdown. For example, "Create Association". The fields to select a Saved Search and parent Contract Type are displayed.
  3. Select a "Saved Search" to pick a set of parent agreements.  
  4. Select the "Contract Type Name" for which you want to upload the legacy associations. This dropdown field displays the contract types from the selected Saved Search. For example, select "ICMAutomationBasicAgreement".

The "Association" field is displayed to select the associated document contract type for the legacy associations you are uploading in this batch.

This dropdown field displays all Associated Document Contract Types configured under the "Association" tab for the Contract Type that you have selected in the "Contract Type Name" field.

  1. Select the "Association" contract type. For example, "ICMAssociationCT1".
  2. Click "Next" and complete the batch creation for Association following the same process as for the creation of the agreement batch.

The auto-generated workbook will contain the pre-filled details for the selected agreement contract type from the selected saved search as parent agreements.

Creating a Batch for Peer Associations

You can upload associated documents as peer associations to agreements using Legacy Upload.

  1. Follow the same process explained in the section "Creating a Batch for Associations" till the "Association" field.
  2. Select the "Association". For example, ICMAutomationSupplierMaster.

When you select the peer Associated Document Contract Type in the "Association" field, the "Association" field will reflect this relationship for the selected parent Contract Type and Associated Document Contract Type combination.

Note: When the Self-Linkage is enabled for the selected parent contract type, you can select the same contract type to link as peer association in the Association field.
 
8.0-Legacy Upload-2-CreateBatch-Peer-Associations.PNG
  1. Click "Generate Workbook". The workbook is auto-generated with the pre-filled details of parent records for the selected contract type from the selected saved search in the “Parent Agreement Name | Agreement Code | SysId” format.

The workbook for peer associations also contains the Linkage Type column with the values Parent, Child, and Peer. When there is the Linkage Type Masterdata configured in the ICI, the Linkage Type column will reflect the values from that masterdata.    

Creating a Batch for Peer Associations with Create Wizard Flow.

You can create associated documents as peer associations to agreements using Legacy Upload.

  1. Follow the same process explained in the section above for creating a batch for Associations till the "Association" field.
  2. Select the "Association" contract type. For example, ICMMasterServicesAgreement.

When you select the peer Associated Document Contract Type in the Association field, the Association field will reflect this relationship for the selected parent Contract Type and Associated Document Contract Type combination.

Note: When the Self-Linkage is enabled for the selected parent contract type, you can select the same contract type to link as peer association in the Association field.
  1. Click "Generate Workbook". The workbook is auto-generated with the pre-filled details of parent records for the selected contract type from the selected saved search in the “Parent Agreement Name | Agreement Code | SysId” format, along with the Peer Association attributes as system would create Peer association like agreement creation and it would get linked to the Parent Agreement.

The workbook for peer associations also contains the Linkage Type column with the values as Parent, Child, and Peer. When there is the Linkage Type Masterdata configured in the ICI, the Linkage Type column will reflect the values from that masterdata.

Creating a batch for Masterdata

You can upload Masterdata with or without Approval Workflow using Legacy Upload.

To create a batch for masterdata:

  1. Navigate to the "Create Batch" page as explained in the above section "Creating a Batch for Agreement".
  2. Select the "Legacy Upload Action" from the dropdown. For example, "Create Masterdata". The fields to select Saved Search and Contract Type name are displayed.
  3. Select the masterdata in the "Contract Type Name" field. The dropdown will show all masterdata contract types configured in ICI. For example, select "ICMRegionMasterdata".
  4. Click "Next" and complete the batch creation for Masterdata following the same process as for the creation of the agreement batch.

Creating a batch for User information

You can provision the users in ICI using the Legacy Upload utility. User information is uploaded independently as it is not related to any other entities.

To create a User Provisioning batch:

1. Navigate to the "Create Batch" page as explained in above "Creating a batch for Agreements" section

2. Select the "Legacy Upload Action" from the dropdown. For example, "User Provisioning".

When the "Extended User Entity" masterdata is configured in the system, the "Next" button is displayed to select the attributes from the extended masterdata, else the "Generate Workbook" button is displayed.

3. Click "Next". The "Attributes" tab opens.

The "Available Attribute" section displays all attributes from the "Extended User Entity" masterdata contract type.

4. Select the attributes for which you want to upload the legacy data in the current batch from the "Available Attribute" section and add them to the "Selected Attribute" section using the action arrows.

5. Click "Generate Workbook". The workbook template is generated in the Microsoft  Excel format and downloaded at the pre-set download location on your system.

Creating a batch for Clauses

You can import bulk clauses into ICI with the help of Legacy Upload Tool. User can migrate their existing clause repository from their previous system with lot of easy, along with it the tool also supports attributes tagging capability. An XML specification document is also released which can be used for creating tags in the input document files of Clauses.

To create Clauses batch:

  1. Navigate to the "Create Batch" page as explained in the "Creating a Batch for Agreements" section above.
  2. Select the "Legacy Upload Action" from the dropdown. For example,"Clauses".

When the "Extended Clause Entity" masterdata is configured in the system, the "Next" button is displayed to select the Clause Additional Attributes from the extended masterdata, else the "Generate Workbook" button is displayed.

  1. Click "Next". The "Attributes" tab opens. The "Available Attribute" section displays all attributes from the "Extended Clause Entity".
  2. Select the attributes for which you want to upload the legacy data in the current batch from the "Available Attribute" section and add to the "Selected Attribute" section using the action arrows.
  3. Click "Generate Workbook". The workbook template is generated in the Microsoft Excel format and downloaded at the pre-set download location on your system.

Creating a batch for Template

You can import bulk Templates into ICI with the help of Legacy Upload Tool. User upload relevant templates with capability of Attribute tagging in it. This helps in reducing the implementation duration and achieve faster efficiency. Along with the tool, an XML specification document is also released which can be used for creating tags in the input document files of templates.

To create Templates batch:

Follow the same steps as above with selecting "Template" in the "Legacy Upload Action".

Accessing Legacy Upload Page

The Legacy Upload page displays the details of uploaded batches in a table format. The batch details include Actions, Status, Error details, Batch Passed count, Failed count and so on. User can filter and search legacy upload batch with column filter capability.

You can view the status of the batch by clicking the Refresh button in the top right hand corner to refresh the status of the batch. If you encounter any error while processing the batch, it is highlighted in red color and displayed under the Failed Count column. After the batch is uploaded, click the batch Name to view the history of the processes performed on a particular batch.

To access the Legacy Upload page:

Follow the steps explained in "Creating a Batch Agreement" above.

The "Legacy Upload" page opens.

Preparing the workbook with legacy records data

Once the workbook is generated through the Create Batch process, you need to fill the legacy records data in the respective worksheets to prepare the workbook for uploading the batch.

Accessing the Workbook

  1. Click the arrow beside the file in the Download bar to display available actions.
  2. Click "Open". The pre-configured workbook for the selected contract type opens.
8.0-Legacy Upload-2-WorkBook1.PNG

Alternatively, you can browse and open the downloaded Workbook from the pre-set download location on your system.

  1. Click "Enable Editing" to allow entering of data in the workbook.
7.16 Legacy 22.png
  1. Enter the legacy data in the appropriate worksheets.
  2. Save and close the workbook.

Specifications of a workbook

  • The Workbook is generated based on the selected contract type.
  • The name of the workbook is constructed as the ICI name of the selected Contract Type Name amended with the date timestamp.
  • The mapping sheet is configured automatically and is part of the workbook.
  • The metadata of the workbook is also auto populated in the Information sheet to avoid any manual efforts.
  • The column order in workbook sheet is maintained same as the sequence of attributes on the UI to maintain the consistency.
  • Mandatory fields are highlighted in red.
  • The lookup fields are provided that display the values from reference entities to avoid wrong data entry errors.
  • All related worksheets for an entity, such as Team members, Notes, and Commitments, are available in a single workbook.
  • The attributes necessary for processing are provided as lookup attributes to avoid errors due to manually entering values.
7.16 Legacy 23.png
  • The peer association worksheet also contains the Linkage Type column with the values as Parent, Child and Peer. When there is the Linkage Type Masterdata configured in the ICI, the Linkage Type column will reflect the values from that masterdata.
7.16 Legacy 24.png

Preparing the Mapping Sheet

The mapping sheet is a part of the generated workbook. You need to provide below mentioned details required to process the Legacy Upload batch.

7.16 Legacy Table 2.JPG

Apart from these Batch processing details, you also need to provide the entity details.

Note: Ensure that you enter attribute’s ICI name, spelled exactly as they are present in ICI, in the Mapping sheet and do not mention attribute’s display name. The ICI names are case-sensitive.

7.16 Legacy Table 3.JPG

The snapshot of the sample mapping sheet for Agreement is:

7.16 Legacy 25.png

Preparing the datasheet for ICI entities

The datasheet in the auto-generated workbook contains details specific to the entity and contract type. Also, the data-sheet is named after the selected entity contract type. For example, the datasheet for the Masterdata- ICIStateMaster, is named as same as the contract type name which is ICIStateMaster.

Note: The datasheet reflects the attributes as they are present on the UI for creating the respective entity.

Preparing the datasheet for Agreement, Amendment, Associated Documents and Masterdata

The datasheet for Entities- Agreement, Amendment, Associated Documents, and Masterdata, contains the attributes you selected from the contract type when creating the batch. These attributes will appear in the datasheet in the order of their selection.

The datasheet for these entities also contains the necessary backend attributes required for the processing which may or may not be visible on the UI such as Business Status, Org Unit, Type Of Paper, and File Name. The Type Of Paper attribute has the default value as Third Party. The datasheet for Amendment has additional attributes Is Amendment and Use Amendment Template.

The contract type datasheet for Amendment and Peer Association contains prefilled details for the parent agreements of the selected contract type from the selected saved search. The details comprise pipe-delimited values of Parent Agreement Name, Agreement Code and Sysid within a single column, which would help the system easily find parent records in the ICI.  

The snapshot of the sample auto-generated data sheet for Amendment is:

7.16 Legacy 26.png

You can add the legacy records details in the respective columns to prepare the datasheet.

7.16 Legacy 27.png
Linkage type support for peer associations

The datasheet for uploading peer associations also contains the Linkage Type column with the values Parent, Child, and Peer. When there is the Linkage Type Masterdata configured in the ICI, the Linkage Type column will reflect the values from that masterdata.

After the successful batch upload for peer associations, the appropriate linkage-type relationship is automatically established for the legacy records based on their contract types.

  • For the self-linkage type, the associations will be linked as peers to the agreements of the same contract type. For example, the SOW agreement instance will be linked to another instance of SOW with linkage type as a peer.
  • For the two-way linkage-type, the base agreement and association will be linked as parent and child respectively. For example, when the user selects the linkage type as Child while uploading SOW legacy record, the linked MSA record will be automatically updated as a parent based on the two-way linkage-type configuration.
7.16 Legacy 24.png

Adding Team members, Notes, and Commitments

You can also add Team members, Notes, and Commitments if applicable to the legacy record using the same workbook by adding the details in the respective sheets at the same time when uploading the legacy records.

The worksheets for adding the details for Team members, Notes, and Commitments are part of the workbook.

The snapshot of the auto-generated Team Members worksheet is:

7.16 Legacy 28.png

The snapshot of the auto generated Notes worksheet is:

7.16 Legacy 29.png

The snapshot of the auto generated Commitments worksheet is:

7.16 Legacy 30.png

 

Note: Uploading the team, notes or commitments must be done at the first time when uploading the Agreements. Updating these entities later after Agreements are uploaded is not supported.

Preparing the datasheet for User Provisioning, Clauses, and Templates

The datasheet for entities User Provisioning, Clauses, and Templates reflects all attributes from the selected entity contract type in the same display sequence as they appear on the UI for that entity.

In addition to contact type attributes, the datasheet for these entities also contains the user-selected attributes from the respective extended entity masterdata at the time of batch creation.

Here is the snapshot of the auto-generated User Information worksheet with the sample legacy record details that is ready for upload:

Observations and assumptions for clauses batch

The following observations and assumptions need to be taken into consideration while bulk uploading clauses using the Legacy Upload tool:

  • A Primary Clause and a Linked Primary Clause should not be a part of the same batch. The Primary Clause must be created first and then it should be used as a Linked Primary Clause.
  • A clause with Is Alternate Clause value marked as TRUE and the clause that it is the Alternate of should not be part of the same batch.
  • A clause with Is Dependent Clause value marked as TRUE and the clause which it Depends On should not be part of the same batch. 
  • Tags must be on the same line in the template document. Tagging will not function if the tags are on separate lines. For example, if the closing tag is on the next line, tagging does not work.
  • There should be no non-breaking spaces (ASCII value xA0) within XML tags. Ensure to replace them with regular spaces in XML tags. Using deactivated clause groups is allowed.
  • Template Variables cannot be tagged in a clause. If tagged, the template variable will be treated as plain text and no exceptions are triggered.
  • The user importing templates and clauses must have permissions on the respective tiles, otherwise, they will not be able to view them in Icertis Experience for Word.
  • Only the creation of a clause is supported. Bulk edits and updating edited clause text in templates where the clause is referred are currently not supported.
Observations and Assumptions for templates batch

The following observations and assumptions need to be taken into consideration while uploading templates using the Legacy Upload tool:

  • If tagging fails for a part of the batch, only the Passed count gets updated while the Failed count is not updated. However, the failure count can be inferred.
  • The entire XML should be on the same line. Tagging will not function if the tags are split into separate lines.
  • There should be no non-breaking spaces (ASCII value is xA0) within XML tags. Ensure to replace them with regular spaces in XML tags. 
  • Primary and alternate templates cannot be a part of the same batch.
  • Threading causes some issues. Further, if there has been an error in tagging, it is not possible to rollback or delete instances created using batch upload.
  • Ensure each template is given a unique name. If two templates are uploaded with the same name, then one of the entries fails. However, the Error file does not show any corresponding error message.
Mandatory tags for clause document

The mandatory attribute tags are available in the XML format for tagging inside clauses and templates.

The below table provides the details for XML tags:
