The Contract Clause table stores records of clauses within a contract that have been added as part of the Document Template from the Clause Library, annotated or added in the Word Add-in, or extracted using AI. Contract Clause records represent clauses located within the Contract document, and reflect changes to the Contract throughout the contract lifecycle.
It's important to know the difference between Contract Clause records and Clause records. Each Contract Clause record is associated with one Contract, and may contain language that is non-native to your organization, whereas Clause records in the Clause Library represent the standard versions of clauses your organization has legally vetted for use. Contract Clause records can be compared against Clause records to ensure the language in the non-native contract adheres to your organization's legal and professional standards.
This table is also used in the Clause AI handling script.
Records are automatically created in this table using four possible methods:

Contract Clause records are automatically updated when the contract attachment is edited using "Edit and Checkout" and the change is saved. The "Compare the Baseline" action on Attachments runs and compares the newest version against its original, or "baseline." Changes to the clauses are marked up in the Contract Clause records. Markup is controlled by the "Extract Clauses From Contract Document - Properties" global variable, which is included in the standard system demo or added to a KB when the Word app is installed.
In the Standard System Demo, the Contract Clause table contains multiple active rules.
Records are owned by their creator.
