The Counterpart tab is where the details of the supplier, individual or entity that the contract applies to will appear.
When creating the contract if the counterpart is a Unimarket Supplier you can select them from the Supplier dropdown picklist, which automatically populates the primary contact for this supplier into the Counterpart Contacts field at the bottom, however you can edit/delete or add additional contacts if necessary.
If the counterpart is not a connected Supplier in Unimarket you can enter their name in the Supplier Name field (as a free-text) and add any relevant contact information by clicking the Add Counterpart Contact button.
Amendment to Counterpart
The Supplier in the contract Counterpart can be amended in two scenarios:
1. If the Start Date is in the future - the supplier can still be edited by entering a free-text supplier or selecting from the dropdown list of connected Unimarket suppliers.
2. If the Start Date is in the past (i.e. contract has already started) - only a free text supplier can be edited. If the supplier was selected from the dropdown list of connected Unimarket suppliers this can no longer be edited and locked out of editing.
