Negotiations

The Negotiations group on the Maintenance menu houses links to five maintenance documents that are used to maintain information used in Negotiation e-docs.  As is typical with Maintenance documents, values from these tables are made available for search result retrieval and field selection/entry in non-maintenance e-docs.  In other words, these are used to define the lists of options you can choose from when completing a Negotiation document.
