Attribute

Attributes or metadata are the key components of an Agreement. Attribute data is displayed on contracts and associated documents.

Attributes are of two types:

  • Global: These Attributes are used for all Contract Types.
  • Local: These Attributes are used for specific Contract Types.

To view available Attributes:

1. Click Home > 'Configuration. The Atrributes page opens. On this page you can view a list of all the available attributes, Edit, or Add Attributes.

RTENOTITLE

Adding and Editing an Attribute

With ICI, you can create an attribute and use it while creating a Contract Type.

To create an attribute:

1. Click Configuration on My Dashboard. The Configuration page opens. 

2. Click the Attribute tile.

3. Click the Add icon on the Attribute Library page. The Add Attribute page opens. The Attribute Code is displayed by default.

  • Display Name: Type the appropriate name of the attribute. For example, corporate office. 
  • Data Type list: Select the appropriate option from the list. Additional related fields are displayed based on the selected Data Type option. For example, when the data type is selected as Number, the related Total Length and Number of Decimals fields are displayed. When the data type is selected as Choice, the option to select the UI Control Type between Dropdown and Radio buttons is displayed. When the data type is selected as MultiSelectChoice, the option to select the UI Control Type between Dropdown and Checkbox is displayed. The selected user control will be rendered on browser.The page length will increase as the number of options in Radio button/Checkbox list increase. Hence, it’s recommended to select Radio button or Check box list when the options are less than eight, else select the Dropdown if there are more options.

  • Help Message: Type the appropriate help message of the attribute. For example, enter the address of the corporate office. 
  • Source List: Select from the following: 
    • User
    • Integrated
    • Script 

For example, select Integrated if source is inherited. 

Note: If you select the source as Integrated: Is Editable, Is Mandatory, Defined By Rule, Is Inherit andIs Conditional fields become unavailable. 
  • Default Value: Type the default value of the attribute. The value that you type will be displayed on creating a new agreement.
  • Is Default: Click On to enable rules to be set on the attribute.
  • Is Editable: Click On to make the attribute editable in the Agreement, else select Off.
 Note: If you select On in the Is Editable field, the Tracking Attribute and the Is Unique fields are available.
  • Is Mandatory: Click On to make the attribute mandatory.
  • Tracking Attribute: Click On to make the attribute editable throughout the Agreement lifecycle.
  • Is Unique: Click On to make the attribute unique for a Contract Type.
  • Defined by Rule: Click On to make the attribute editable throughout the Agreement lifecycle.
  • Is Inherit: Click On if you want the attribute to inherit the data from Associated Documents.
  • Is Searchable: Click On to make the attribute easy to search.
  • Is Supersedable: Click On to make the updated or amended attribute supersede the earlier one. 
  • Is Conditional: Click On to make the attribute dependent on another attribute. The Conditional section opens. In the Depend on Attribute list, select the attribute on which the new attribute is dependent. In the Depends On Value box, type the value of the selected attribute. Select the values from the Depends on Value field which are automatically fetched based on the attribute selected in Depends On Attribute field, if the data type of that attribute is Lookup, Choice, MultiChoice, or Boolean.

Editing an Attribute

In ICI, you can edit an existing attribute. Editing the attribute doesn't have any effect on the Contract Types where it is used.
You can use the edited attribute to create new contract types.  

Note: To edit an attribute in all the entities where it is used (Clauses, Templates, Agreements), go to the Attributes tab of appropriate Contract Type, edit the attribute, and then publish it.

To edit an attribute:

1.Click Configuration on the Home page. The Configuration page opens.

2. Click Attribute  on the Configuration page. In the Available Attribute list, select an attribute that you want to edit.

Alternatively, you can type the name of the attribute in the Search box, and then select the attribute. The Edit Attribute page opens.

3. Modify the existing information as required, and then click Save. The Success! Attribute updated successfully message is displayed at the bottom of the page. You can modify all the field values except attribute code and attribute name.

Arithmetic Operations and Logical Validations on Attributes

Users can configure arithmetic calculations, logical validations and visibility conditions for attributes using the Enable Expressions attribute property at the agreement, contract request, association and masterdata contract type level.

Configuring Expressions for attributes  

To configure arithmetic calculations and logical validations for attributes at the contract type level (agreement, contract request, association and masterdata):

1. Click the Configuration > Create Contract Type on the Home page. The Select Contract Type page opens. 

Create Contract Type.PNG

3. Select the Contract Type you want to create. For example, AGREEMENT.

7.10 Arithmatic 3.png

4. Click Next. The Create Contract Type page opens. 
5. Enter a name in the Contract Type Name field. 
6. Enter all the details on the Details tab. 
7. Click Next. The Attributes tab opens. 

Note: The arithmetic calculations are supported for attributes like Currency, Date, Number and Percentage data types.
 
7.10 Arithmatic 4.png

For example, if you want to calculate the Total Price of a commodity, you need to multiply the attribute values in the fields Product Price and No Of Units. You can also set validation messages on its outcome so that the Total Price value must be greater than 100.

8. Select the attribute Total Price from the Available Attribute list and move it to the Selected Attribute list.
9. Toggle the Enable Expressions flag On for the attribute Total Price. The Expressions tab opens. 

Calculations are performed through the default expression field denoted as EXPR1. 

Note: The Expression field cannot be removed. The new expression can be added or removed by NEW ROW and REMOVE ROW buttons. Each expression such as EXPR1, EXPR2, EXPR3, and so on contains Function and Parameters fields. Based on arithmetic and logical operators selected through the Function field, parameters are set in the Parameters field.

The available functions include Constants (NUMBER, BOOLEAN, DATE, STRING), Arithmetic operations (ADD, SUBSTRACT, MULTIPLY, DEVIDE, PERCENT), Date operations (such as DATE ADD, DATE DIFFERENCE), Logical operations (such as GREATER THAN, LESS THAN, EQUALS, ALL, ANY, NOT) and String operations (CONTAINS, IN, STARTS WITH, HAS VALUE).

10. Select an expression (for example, MULTIPLY) from the Function drop-down of EXPR1. 
11. Select Product Price and No Of Units from the Parameters field to multiply product price and no of units attribute values to get the total price.
12. Click NEW ROW to add a new expression. For example, EXPR2 and EXPR3.
13. Select a Function CONSTANT (NUMBER, BOOLEAN, DATE, and STRING) from the Function drop-down of EXPR2 if you want that to be a constant value.
14. Enter a value (for example, 100) in the Parameters field to set the value of Total Price. A validation message will be displayed if this value is greater than the total price.
15. Select another function (GREATER THAN) from the Function drop-down of EXPR3.
16. Select Total Price and EXPR2 in the Parameters drop-down of EXPR3.
The Result Expression field is used to reflect the result of the selected expression field (EXPR1, EXPR2, EXPR3, and so on). 

Configuring the validation message for an attribute:

The Validate Expression field is used to validate the evaluation based on the selected expression (EXPR1, EXPR2, EXPR3, and so on). The Validate Message field is linked to the Validate Expression field and triggers a user-entered message in case of an invalid expression.

17. Select EXPR1 in the Result Expression drop-down.
18. Select EXPR3 in the Validate Expression drop-down.
19. Enter Total price must be greater than 100 in the Validate Message field.

7.10 Arithmatic 5.png

 

Configuring the visibility conditions for an attribute:

You can set a Visibility Expression for displaying an attributes dynamically on ICI UI instance, based on business conditions. For example, attribute Cost Surcharge Percentage can be displayed when the calculated Total Price is less than 100.00.

 
20. Click Add on the Attribute page. The Add Attribute section opens.
21. Enter Display Name. For example, Cost Surcharge Percentage.
22. Enter details for the attribute.
