An agreement passes through various phases during the agreement lifecycle, from the time the agreement is created until the agreement is activated. Sometimes, the agreement is managed offline and the contract manager will need to upload the executed document. Also while uploading a signed agreement offline, you can upload the executed agreement. 

An executed document is a finalized version of an agreement that is ready for activation in the Contract Management application.
