You can view contracts created through the Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) workflow in Workday's
Buyer Hub
. You can also approve contracts or contract amendments for draft contracts without errors in the
Buyer Hub

      Process: CLM Integrations
      security domain.
    2. Add security groups with both

      and
      Modify
      permissions.

      report field to limit this step to only contracts from the CLM integration.
