Adding an Item to a Clause Category or Type List
The Clause Profile contains four default field lists that a user with the List Admin permission must populate with selections: Clause Category, Clause Group, Clause Type, and Clause Security. The lists are used when adding a clause to the Clause Library by a user with the Clause Admin permission. Therefore, a user should have both the List Admin and Clause Admin permissions in order to add a clause after providing the item selections for its field lists.
Clause Category is used to identify the language used in the contract, such as business, government, standard, or alternative language. Clause Type refers to the subject of the clause, such as an Assignment, Payment Terms, or Termination clause.
The steps below pertain to the Clause Category and Clause Type lists, which are required fields when adding a clause. Although Clause Security is not a required field in the Clause Profile or in the Role Profile screens, list items should also be added for this field list.
