The List Administration screen is used to manage the item selections in the field lists in Contracts program screens, designate required fields, and provide Quick Tips to assist users in populating fields in program screens.

Field lists are organized by categories and managed from the List Administration screen. Currently, there are 13 default list categories: Address, Clause Library, Company, Company Additional Fields, Contract, Contract Additional Fields, Document, Payment Terms, People, Project, Project Additional Fields, Relationship, and Workflow. Additional categories are added when an administrator adds an additional company, contract, or project additional form. These additional forms are added to the List Administration screen in alphabetical order by form name.

  1. Click the Gear Icon in the Navigation Toolbar, and click the Lists link in the menu.
  2. In the Field Lists section of the screen, enter the name of the list, or the first few letters of the list name, in the Search field, and press the ENTER key on your keyboard. To clear the filter, click the icon.

Important: The Search option locates list names, not categories. For example, searching for workflow will yield no results, but searching for routing will show the Routing Table Category list in the Workflow category. Similarly, searching for contract will yield only those lists that begin with the word contract, but not Agreement Type, which is one of the field lists in the Contract Profile screen.

  1. Click on the list name to select it, and display the existing items for the list.

If a field list contains a large number of items, click Excel in the toolbar to export the list to an Excel spreadsheet where you can more easily view and manage the list items.
