To use X-Author Contracts, along with installing the Microsoft Word Add-In, system administrators may need to configure Salesforce objects to ensure X-Author Contracts is correctly associated with Microsoft Word.
For the X-Author Contracts Add-In to work, the Apttus Contract Management package must be installed in your Salesforce Org. This is required so that the various dialog boxes available in X-Author Contracts can display the correct fields. Once this is done by your system administrator, you will be able to install the X-Author Contracts Add-In and begin using it.
