Approval (Closing) Of The Change
Closing (approving) the change copy/variant must be done before it is transferred to the original, if the Strict Changes List Policy =Y flag is in OneCore Setup.
The user on the change copy/variant opens the Change Contract History overview via Related/Contract Change History.
Once confirmed, the Contract Change History overview opens.
If the user wants to close (approve) the last change, he/she opens the Contract Change History Card – by clicking on the row or via Manage/Edit.
Closing a row in Change Contract History will be used to approve changes in the same way in the case of a change copy as well as in the case of a variant.
The line closure function works as follows:
if Strict Changes List Policy in OneCore Setup = N, the Approve Change button will be hidden – in this case, the system will close the change list automatically when transferring the change copy/variant
if Strict Changes List Policy is in OneCore Setup = Y, the Approve Change button will be active and will perform the following steps when pressed:
Checks for the new Customer Approval flag
if N, it displays an error message and does not continue (i.e. approval will be possible only if Customer Approval = A):
if Y, it proceeds to the next step.
fills in the Approval Date field, fills in the currently system date
changes the flag to Closed/Closed to Y.
Note: The date of the customer's consent is entered manually by the user.
If the user (or the system) has closed a row in the Contract Change History, the system will no longer allow you to enter or edit anything on the line (the check is for leaving the card):
The user can then transfer the change copy or variant (see the relevant chapters).
