Upgrading Templates
When you upgrade to Contract Management from a version earlier to Contract Management 7.0, you must upgrade all of your templates. The following items are updated by the Migration Manager to support the Universal Unique Identifier (UUID) field:
- All template records, including clauses.
- All clause references are updated to point to the UUID instead of the Salesforce ID
- Document properties
- Term Exceptions
Although Term Exceptions are also updated with UUIDs, they cannot be automatically migrated. You have to copy these term exception records from the source to other orgs (if multi-org ecosystem is involved) by data loader or other means after the upgrade.
Prerequisites
- Close all Microsoft Office products before running an upgrade.
Upgrade templates
Upgrading your templates ensures that you have the latest features and improvements for your document management system. This task will guide you through the process of upgrading templates using the X-Author Migration Manager.
The upgrade runs and displays the progress for each template that is updated. Each upgrade creates a log file which you can review to see the specifics for the upgrade.
