Terms and Conditions Tab

FlexNet Manager Suite 2019 R2 (On-Premises Edition)

The Terms and conditions tab allows you to track the terms of the contract (outside the agreement document itself), including drawing attention to the expiry of time-related terms.

The tab shows a list of terms and conditions (T&Cs) already created for this contract, and allows you to create new T&Cs directly.

To create a new term or condition for this contract, click Create. A new Create a term or condition pane expands at top of the tab, displaying the properties of the term or condition that you can set. Complete the details as described in the list below, and click Add to insert your new T&C into the list below.

The same properties are available for display in the list. Some are displayed by default, and others are available in the column chooser. They are described here in editing order.

Property Editing Notes
Begin date

If the term or condition has its own effective date (especially when different than the Start date of the overall contract), record it here. You might also use this, in conjunction with the end date, to set a window for action.

Type in the begin date for the term/condition, or click the calendar icon at the right of the field to pick the date.
