Approving and Rejecting Agreements
An agreement can be created from an approved contract request or by creating a new agreement. Rejecting an agreement sends it back to the primary owner to make the required changes. Either way it is created, an agreement must be approved before it moves to the next stage of the workflow. All permissions, such as creating, approving and deleting of entities are controlled from the role-action mapping.
Following are the predefined roles for Agreements:
- Primary Owner: creates the agreements
- Contract Admin: can configure security settings and role permissions
- Approver: can approve and reject agreements
- Reviewer: this is an optional role that review the agreement, if the primary owner or the approver chooses to send the agreement for reviews.
- Deviation Approver: reviews any deviations in rules and clauses and approves and reject the deviations.

- your list of Tasks, or
- the agreement details page.
