Business situation
An updated template appears on an old order while its earlier approval remains unchanged.
The key decision
Separate editable templates, generated snapshots and confirmed documents. Changed content must follow the appropriate review path.
How implementation works
Version templates and mappings, bind approvals to files and connect signing receipts to the same archived version.
Business value and evolution
Teams can explain what was approved and where it came from. Additional contract types reuse consistent version rules.
