Freeze Sales Contract Revision
Explanation
Use this activity to freeze a sales contract revision to prevent anyone from doing
any changes on a contract revision. Freezing a contract revision is normally
done at critical stages during the contract's lifecycle. This can typically
be when submitting a tender, being awarded the contract, and when the sales contract
is agreed and activated.
The contract revision will automatically be frozen (if not already frozen)
when setting the tender baseline and contract baseline.
Prerequisites
- The sales contract revision must not have been frozen.
- The sales contract cannot be in the status Cancelled, Lost,
or Closed.
System Effects
- The sales contract revision will be frozen. No further changes can be done
to the contract lines or contract line items
- The Frozen field will be set to Yes.
- All the default values on the contract will be copied to each line item,
if not already overridden on the item level.
- It is possible to unfreeze a frozen revision, but it is not recommended
since there is a risk of invalidating the baselines and snapshots. It should
only be used if there is no other option.
