Table of Contents
Overview
AGRIS Commodity Management System has been enhanced with the ability to manage, view, and print contract amendment notes. There are two types of amendment notes, external and internal. All note types can be managed and viewed through contract maintenance and price contract applications, viewed through customer summary applications, and available to contract extracts and form print.
For each contract type, users can designate a default number of days past to print notes. Past number of days is based on current operating system date. Valid values are blank, and 0 through 999. Blank indicates print all amendment notes. A zero value indicates print the current day’s amendment notes. One through 999 represent the number of days past. Amendments notes with entry/last edit date within the date range will print.
Within contract maintenance, based on security rights, users will be able to view, add, edit, or delete contract and price/delivery amendment notes. Contract amendment notes apply to the whole contract, while price/delivery amendment notes only apply to a price/delivery schedule.
Amendment note information stored on file includes note text, external/internal flag, user id, and entry/last edit date/time. The maximum amendment text size is 1000 characters. External/Internal flag indicates note is available to publish to customer (external) or is an internal memo. The user id identifies the AGRIS user that created or last updated the note. The entry/last edit date/time represents the note creation or last edit date/time and is used to determine the note’s print availability.
Within customer summary, users will be able to view contract amendments if security permits.
Amendment note management and view provides a filter to change selection criteria. The filter input includes past number of days, amendment date range, price/delivery schedule, and external/internal setting. Amendment note date entry overrides the “past number of days” entry.
Amendment notes are available to be included in contract xml extract document. Notes are only included in the xml extract document when requested. All notes are included. There is no filtering by date range or number of days.
Enhancement includes a new standard contract form, which includes amendment notes.
