Create Smart Link for Association

Smart Link displays all the Agreements/Associations that are relevant to a particular search criteria (on the Agreement Details page). You can search specific Agreement, save your search, and then create a Smart Link that appears on the Agreement Details page.

For example, you are searching SOW (Statement of Work) Associated Document and search result displayed twenty five associated documents. You can now save this search result as a smart link. It will appear on the Agreement Details page. Whenever you click the Smart Link icon on the Agreement Details page, you will see all these twenty five Associated Documents.
Your search parameters can be anything as per your business requirements. This can be converted to Smart Links.
