| + | == Adding a smart link for related entities to the left navigation pane == | ||
| + | |||
| + | ICI Business Applications and Implementation Teams can to set smart link as a means of easy navigation across related entities.<br/> Configurators can: | ||
| + | |||
| + | *Configure a smart link across any ICI entity that defines the entity relationships | ||
| + | *Set the configured smart link in the left navigation pane and control its access privileges using ICI standard left pane configuration capabilities | ||
| + | |||
| + | Users can: | ||
| + | |||
| + | *Click on the left navigation link from an agreement contract type that will render the smart link result in grid | ||
| + | *Access existing ICI grid’s capabilities such as searching, sorting, filtering or exporting results as CSV/Excel for Smart Link results | ||
| + | |||
| + | Any changes made to the smart link configuration, will reflect in any subsequent smart link results rendered from the left navigation pane. The filter/search will also work for the right pane grid.<br/> The smart link configured for left pane through saved search settings will only be available on the left navigation pane and will not appear in the 3 dots select action drop down and under Smart links icon on Entity Details page. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Let’s consider an example of entities related in multi-level hierarchy as Agreement > Obligations > Fulfillments. Earlier users had to navigate through obligations in order to access the child fulfillments. Users can now navigate directly from parent agreement to grandchild fulfillments using the smart link added to the agreement’s left navigation pane, thus saving number of clicks and page loads, and improving efficiency. | ||

Agreement Details Page
You can see the current Status and all the information related to the Agreement in various sections on the left navigation. You can also perform various actions depending upon your role and the state of the Agreement.
Here are the details you can see when you click on different sections in the left pane:
Agreement: this section shows the basic information of the Agreement. It has the following sections:
- Summary: displays the Agreement Name, the Status and the name of the Agreement creator. It also displays the Template Name and the Template Version used to create the Agreement.
- Details: show the attributes of the Agreement along with the rich text area. Only the Primary Owner can edit the values of these attributes. Note, if Primary Owner is replaced within the Team, the Primary Owner Name and Primary Owner Email fields will get updated with the current information.
- Preview: shows what the Agreement will look like if printed. If the Agreement is in Draft state, the preview only shows the attributes defined in the Agreement. If it is in Approved state, the preview also shows the actual values of the attributes. You can control the size of the document preview by resizing the browser window or print the document or export the agreement attributes to the desired format.
- Versions shows the various versions created for the specific Agreement.
- History shows the entire life cycle of the agreement till now.
Note: The Summary and Details section can both contain attributes with rich text area. Click the View icon to see the details of the attribute.
Association: Click Add 
icon to add Associated Documents to the Agreement. You can also add Associated Documents instances with a simple drag-and-drop action. For this, click the specific Associated Document under the Associations tab. This displays the drop zone if it is configured to be displayed. Drag-and-drop multiple files into the drop area provided. The name of the resulting Associations will display the file name.
This option is available only for the Associated Documents which are created using the specific Associated Document Contract Type:
- that has the Show File Drop Zone field set as Yes, and
- that does not contain any mandatory fields other than Name.
Associated Documents created using this Contract Type will have this feature enabled.
Deviations: allow you to add any changes to the Clauses. This may require the Agreement to be sent to the Deviation Approver for review and approvals.
You can add deviation approvers directly from the Deviations section by clicking the Deviation Approver icon. This eliminates the need to navigate to the Team tab to add the Deviation Approvers.
Addition of action buttons on the Deviations tab
The ApproveAll, RejectAll and ClearAll buttons have been added on the Deviations tab of the agreement Details page to approve, reject or clear the selected deviations respectively.
This makes it easier for the user to take actions on multiple deviations of the agreement in one go, considerably reducing the effort of approving, rejecting or clearing each one individually.
Deviated Clauses
To view or add deviations for clauses:
1. Click the view record icon on the Agreement Management page. The Details page opens.
2. Click the Deviations tab.
3. Click the plus icon next to Add Deviation to manually add deviations to the agreement’s clauses. The Add Deviation window opens.
Note: To automatically add deviations, you have to download the agreement, modify the clauses and upload the agreement in ICI. To deviate a clause, the Deviation Analysis attribute should be set to Yes when creating the clause from the Create Clause page of Clause Management.
- Click the search icon to select and add the deviated clause.
- Enter the text for the deviated clause.
- Enter your comments for the deviated clause.
- Click Save.
4. Click the plus icon next to Deviation Approver to manually add approvers for your deviated clauses.
5. Click the Send for Approval button.
- Click
to view the comments provided by other users in the team or other stakeholders. - Click
to open the Deviation Details window. It displays the standard clause text, the deviated clause text and the comments provided by other users. You can add your own comments too. - Click
to remove a deviation.
Note:
- Only deviations that are added manually can be removed. If deviations have been added by downloading the agreement and then uploading the agreement back to ICI, those deviations cannot be removed.
- Deviation approvers can also be added by defining rules from the Rules page.
- The Primary owner can send the reviewed agreement to the Deviation Approver. As a Deviation Approver, you can approve or reject clauses inside the agreement if a Deviation Approver role is assigned to you.
6. Clicking the Send for Approval button in Step 5 enables the Approve, Reject, Approve All, Reject All and Save Changes buttons. The Clear All button will be enabled when an action is taken on any deviated clause. Only the Deviation Approver can view these buttons.
- Approve: Click to approve each individual clause.
- Reject: Click to reject each individual clause.
Clicking the Approve and Reject buttons opens the Deviation Details window, displaying the details of the clause. You can also put in your comments in the Comments box. You do not have to click Save Changes to save your comments; they will be saved automatically.
- To approve or reject deviations in one go, click the Approve All or Reject All button.
In the above example, as we have already selected one clause for approval and one clause for rejection, clicking Approve All or Reject All will select the remaining 2 clauses (i.e. clauses that are not already selected). You can also add a common comment for the clauses. Comments will not be saved until you click the Save Changes button.
Note: When you have taken actions for all the deviations, the Approve All and Reject All buttons will be disabled.
- Clear All: Clears all selections.

Commitments: displays the Commitments that may have been manually added for the Agreement. Commitments are contractual obligations or deliverables that you may have for a particular Agreement. The Commitment functionality in ICI is used to track the action items and assign owners to each action item. ICI triggers email alerts to owners before Commitment due date as reminders. When a Commitment is actioned, the Commitment State is reflected in the Commitments tab of the Agreement. On completion of respective tasks, owners update the status of Commitment in ICI. These states are visible on the Agreement Details and the Compliance Management pages.
Commitments are searchable using these new states and can be localized as per user preferences. Search allows you to search the localized values and the facet Search displays unique values of the commitment state names and the appropriate count. The existing Reports also reflect these localized values.

When downloading a file in ICI, users can retain the original file name for any entity when uploading it to ICI, making it easier for users to identify and manage them. This is achieved through a technical configuration.
This is applicable to agreements, amendments, associations and file attributes in agreements/associations.
Note: The original file name cannot be retained for existing files (like those uploaded using the Own type of paper) where a user has not uploaded the file, for ICI generated files, and when users perform operations like Recall or Reject.
Users can download all associated documents together throughout the agreement and amendment lifecycle including the expired state. Users can also download agreement’s amendments with corresponding parent-child associations through the Download All action.
Note: The Administrator can control the access privileges for Download and Download All actions through Role Action Mapping, User Groups and Security Groups as per ICI existing functionality. By default, only primary owner and secondary owner can download all the associations of the agreements and amendments.
To download all associations and amendments of the agreement in expired state:
- Click Configuration > Agreement Management on the Home page. The agreement index page opens.
- Click View Record icon next to the agreement you want to download. For example, MDL Agreement. The agreement Details page opens.
- Click Download All. The Download window opens.
- Select Associations, Amendments and amendment associations you want to download.
Notes:
The Download window for selective download can be enabled through technical configuration for the specific ICI instance.
The Download All action will download all the components of an agreement (base agreement, agreement’s peer and parent-child associations, amendments and amendment parent-child associations) when the selective download is disabled.

The system will download the base agreement, and each selected Association, Amendment with selected amendment parent-child associations in separate folders.
For example, selected Annexure1 Association is downloaded in ICMAnnexture1 folder and selected Amendments ICMMDLAgreementAmednment_11 and ICMMDLAgreementAmednment_12 are downloaded with corresponding selected associations in folders named Amendment_1 and Amendment_2.
Reset the Expiry Date of the agreement and amendment
User can reset the expiry date of the expired agreement and amendments as per the business need.
Note: The Administrator can control the access to Reset Expiry Date action through Role Action Mapping, User Groups and Security Groups as per ICI existing functionality. By default, only Administrators and primary owner can reset expiry date of agreements and amendments.
To reset the expiry date of the agreement:
- Click Configuration > Agreement Management on the Home page. The agreement index page opens.

- Enter the date in New Expiry Date field. For example, July 11, 2020.
- Click Update. The agreement will move back to the previous state if the expiry date is set to future date.
Assigning Executed Agreements: ICIs additional workflow state allows you to assign the executed Agreements to other parties with updated metadata, in order to fulfil obligations and responsibilities, depending on the business requirements. The assignment Agreement goes through the workflow of approval and execution processes, and then supersedes the parent Agreement attributes as configured. Thus, the parent Agreement gets assigned to the new parties on the assignment date.
Terminating Executed Agreements: ICIs additional workflow state allows you to terminate executed Agreements.This is useful in business scenarios where an executed Agreement can be terminated only after executing a termination Agreement for it. The termination Agreement goes through the workflow of approval and execution processes, and then supersedes the parent Agreement attributes including the termination date as per the configuration. Thus, the parent agreement gets terminated on that termination date.
Reports: this section shows reports that are agreement specific and provide information that you are authorized to view. You can select filters and based on the permutation and combinations of the applied filter, the appropriate columns are displayed.
The following reports are accessible on this page:
- Clause Deviations
- Association Report
- Attribute Value Report
An error message is displayed if no results are generated or in case an incorrect filter is applied. You should be able to export the report into Excel, CSV or PDF. You can also schedule an email to be triggered when the report is generated.
To learn more about these reports, go to the Agreement Details Page Reports page.
All other reports can be viewed on various tabs of the Reports tile. To view other reports, go to the Reports Overview page.
ICI Business Applications and Implementation Teams can to set smart link as a means of easy navigation across related entities.
Configurators can:
- Configure a smart link across any ICI entity that defines the entity relationships
- Set the configured smart link in the left navigation pane and control its access privileges using ICI standard left pane configuration capabilities
Users can:
- Click on the left navigation link from an agreement contract type that will render the smart link result in grid
- Access existing ICI grid’s capabilities such as searching, sorting, filtering or exporting results as CSV/Excel for Smart Link results
Any changes made to the smart link configuration, will reflect in any subsequent smart link results rendered from the left navigation pane. The filter/search will also work for the right pane grid.
The smart link configured for left pane through saved search settings will only be available on the left navigation pane and will not appear in the 3 dots select action drop down and under Smart links icon on Entity Details page.
Let’s consider an example of entities related in multi-level hierarchy as Agreement > Obligations > Fulfillments. Earlier users had to navigate through obligations in order to access the child fulfillments. Users can now navigate directly from parent agreement to grandchild fulfillments using the smart link added to the agreement’s left navigation pane, thus saving number of clicks and page loads, and improving efficiency.
Defining the relationship between entities using common attributes
Users can define the relationship between any non related ICI entities using their common attributes by creating a smart link. Users can then add this link to the contract type’s left navigation pane for easy navigation to the linked entities.
The provision to configure these smart links is available on the Save Search window.
To create a Saved Search:
1. Click Search tile on the Home page. The Advanced Search page opens.
