You can update user-defined variables. However if the variable is used in Contract Expert rules or clauses, you cannot update the following fields:

• Value set

• Variable Source

• Procedure Name

• Variable Code

Steps:

1. Search for the variable that you want to update.

2. Click the Update button to open the variable for update. Please note that once the variable has been used in a clause, you can only update the variable description and the Disable check box. You must create a new variable if you want to change value set assigned to a user-defined variable, after the variable has been used in a clause.

   Note: If the value set that was used on a variable is deleted, the variable cannot be used in Oracle Contracts. You must create a new variable with a valid value set, and then update all the clauses, templates, and business documents impacted by this change.

3. Make the necessary changes. For more information, see the Creating Variables section.

4. Select the Disable check box, if you want to prevent further use.

5. Click Apply to save the variable.
