- **[Select contract type while initiating a third-party contract](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=cncore-initiate-non-ss-cnt&family=yokohama&ft:locale=en-US)**
In the Initiate contract window, the **Type** field appears when you select the **Third party paper** option. You can specify whether the contract request is for a single contract or multiple contracts.
If you select **Single contract**, a **Contract type** field appears where you can define the type of contract document. This field isn’t available when you select **Multiple contracts**.
- **[Classify contract requests as a single or multiple contracts type based on selected documents](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=snlc-submit-request-tpc&family=yokohama&ft:locale=en-US)**
When you're creating a third-party contract review request from Employee Portal, you can now select a single contract document to classify it as a single contract type. By selecting multiple contract documents, you can classify them as a multiple contracts type. The **Type** field in the contract request reflects this selection by displaying either **Single contract** or **Multiple contracts**.
- **[Use scripts to define additional conditions for a clause variation](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=cncore-add-clauses-doc-tmplt&family=yokohama&ft:locale=en-US)**
You can now define the clause conditions on the fields and variables of a table that isn’t directly linked to the contract template table. The **Advanced script** check box in the Clause Variation form enables you to add custom logic to determine when a clause variation is used in a contract.
- **[Configure tables in a contract template to append or add fields from related tables](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=cncore-append-data-table&family=yokohama&ft:locale=en-US)**
You can now use scripts to insert additional data from the related table fields into the dynamic tables of a contract. The **Advanced script** check box in the Column Mapping form enables you to configure dynamic tables in a contract template to display additional data from related table fields by appending it to existing columns or adding it as new columns.
- **[Contract Management Pro configurations are available on the Contract Request table](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=cncore-create-ct-word-addin&family=yokohama&ft:locale=en-US)**
You can now set up the following Contract Management Pro configurations directly on the Contract Request \[sn\_cm\_core\_contract\_request\] table to centralize the configuration on a single table and improve consistency and reusability across business units:
- Contract templates
- Template rules
- Internal signatory rules
- Clause and clause variation setup
- Contract configuration
- External storage and e-signature integrations
- Mappings for Now Assist contract metadata extraction and Now Assist contract analysis
The Contract Request table is automatically selected for a new configuration. You can manually select a different table, if necessary.
**Note:** To avoid configuration issues, ensure that you select the same table across all related configurations.
- **[Configure dynamic tables for contract template](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=cncore-addin-table&family=yokohama&ft:locale=en-US)**
You can now set up the contract template on the Contract Request \[sn\_cm\_core\_contract\_request\] table. When you select the Contract Request table, the **Table** tab in the Microsoft Word add-in displays an additional field, called the **Parent request table** field, that you can use to select the source parent request table.
Additionally, the **Table** field has been renamed to **Lookup table** where you can select the table from the data that is populated into the contract document.
If the template isn’t based on the Contract Request table, only the **Lookup table** field is shown.
- **[Signature blocks enabled by default for new contract templates](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=cncore-create-ct-word-addin&family=yokohama&ft:locale=en-US)**
When you’re creating a contract template, the **Signature blocks** check box in the Word Template New Record form is selected by default. If you want to configure the participant-based signatories for the contract template, you can clear the check box.
- **[Copy fields from parent request to contract request](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=cncore-copy-fld-frm-parent&family=yokohama&ft:locale=en-US)**
You can now configure the ContractManagementExt extension point to automatically copy the required fields from the originating business unit record to the contract request when it’s initiated.
- **[Modify signatories](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=cncore-pause-signature&family=yokohama&ft:locale=en-US)**
Enable contract fulfillers to pause an ongoing signature process, make necessary changes to the list or order of signatories, and then resume the process without restarting the entire workflow by using the **Modify Signatories** and **Resume signature** options. This feature is supported only for the Docusign electronic signature provider.
- **[Signature workflow for a contract request](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=cncore-signature-workflow&family=yokohama&ft:locale=en-US)**
The wet signature process has been enhanced for better control and clarity. Wet signature requests are sent one signatory at a time, starting with the first signatory in order. When the signatory signs and returns the document, the fulfiller manages the remaining signatures.
- **[Resend signature request](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=cncore-resend-sign-req&family=yokohama&ft:locale=en-US)**
Enable contract fulfillers to manually trigger a signature request when needed, instead of relying on automated reminders by using the **Resend signature request** option.
- **[Configuring signatories in Contract template using Microsoft Word add-in](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=cncore-config-sign-addin&family=yokohama&ft:locale=en-US)**
Signature placeholders in contract templates are now mapped to the e-signature tool tags \(such as Docusign\), instead of signer fields to help accommodate changes in the signatories. The values in the signature blocks are filled in by the signatories during the signing process.
- **[Upload and parse contract template](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=cncore-upload-doc-addin&family=yokohama&ft:locale=en-US)**
Upload the contract document directly from the Microsoft Word Add-in instead of selecting it from your system.
