In contract metadata extraction, use cases specify the information that you want Now Assist to detect in a document, and the use case mappings define the type of information to process.
The CM Pro - Contract Metadata Extraction use case is available with the Now Assist in the Contract Management base system. This use case is not editable.  
Note:  
If you create your own use case or customize a copy of an available use case, be sure to test it thoroughly to ensure accuracy.  
The following fields are configured in the CM Pro - Contract Metadata Extraction use case for metadata extraction.{#metadata-extraction-use-case__table_otw_54f_xcc__entry__3}
