Create a contract template that can be used to generate a standard contract with predefined content when an employee submits a contract request.

## Antes de Iniciar

Role required: sn_cm_core.contract_config

If you are creating a contract template for a non-task table, ensure that the non-task table is added in the extension script. For more information, see [Configure non-task tables for contract templates](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/9P737B_W4LPBcrD4ZIzN3Q "Add non-task tables in the script of an extension point implementation so you can select them while creating contract templates. A non-task table does not extend task tables, and stores records, reference data, or configuration information used across the platform.").

## Procedimento

1. Navigate to AllContracts CoreContract AdministrationContract Templates.  
   The Word Templates page opens in the Contract Templates view by default.
2. Select New.  
   Figura 1. Contract template form
3. On the form, fill in the fields.  
   {#cncore-create-contract-template__table_qfw_c4s_ypb__entry__2}

   | Field | Description |
   |-|-|
   | Name | Unique name for the contract template. |
   | Table | Table to which you want to associate the contract template. |
   | Category | Document category to which you want to associate the contract template. |
   | Document | The document from which you want to import clauses and template field mapping. The selected document should be a Microsoft Word (.docx) document and should have valid content controllers. For more information, see [Add content controls in a Microsoft Word document](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/e1aFd4Y57ASMEfi06JuQNQ "As a contract configurator, prepare a Microsoft Word document that you want to import as a contract template by marking the content with content controls so it can be efficiently parsed and reused."). |
   | State | Current state of the document template. * Draft: Indicates that the document template is not yet published. * Editing: Indicates that the document template is being edited after it has been published. * Published: Indicates that the document template can be consumed by services and cases. {#cncore-create-contract-template__ul_ivh_sfw_4lb} |
   | Application | Application to which the contract template belongs. This field is automatically set to the application scope in which you're creating the contract template. |
   | Active | Option to make the template active and available for use. |
   | Start date | Date on which the Word document template becomes valid. Providing a start date helps when maintaining multiple versions of same template. This field is available only when Category is selected. |
   | End date | Date until which the Word document template is valid. Providing an end date helps when maintaining multiple versions of same template. If the values in the Start date and End date fields are empty the template will always be valid. Nota: If you specify an end date, you must also specify a start date. This field is available only when Category is selected. |
   [Tabela 1. Word Template New Record form]

   {#cncore-create-contract-template__table_qfw_c4s_ypb}  
   When the document is selected, the Participants, Imported Clauses, Clause Mappings, and Template Mappings related list appear.
4. In the Contract Type field, select only one category of the contract type.  
   If you're creating a template for non-disclosure agreement, select Non Disclosure Agreement as the contract type.
5. Select Parse Document to extract the content marked by content control from the imported document.  
   * The content controls that have clause_ as prefix are derived from the document and listed under the Imported clauses related list.
   * The content controls that have field_, signatory_, signature_, and sign_ as prefix are derived from the document and listed under the Template mappings related list.
   {#cncore-create-contract-template__ul_ccz_4hl_t1c}
6. Select Save.

## Resultado

The contract template is saved in the Draft state.
