Before you use the Conga CLM application to manage contracts, you must define the agreement record types. An agreement record type is a way of categorizing agreements and allows us to provide different page layouts to users based on their profile. The page layout provides a canvas for adding fields and related lists.

The following are some of the agreement record types:

  • Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA)
  • Master Subscription Agreement (MSA)
