Route For Approval:

• User clicks on the "Route For Approval" button. This initiates the routing for the approval process

• A confirmation dialog appears with "Yes" and "Cancel" buttons

• Confirming the Action:

  • If the user clicks "Yes" in the confirmation pop-up, the following actions occur:

    • The contract is routed to the other party for approval

    • The status of the contract changes from "Ready to Post" to "Awaiting Acceptance"

    • A green banner is displayed, indicating that the contract is now awaiting acceptance

    • A notification is sent to the other party to take appropriate action,  accepting or declining the contract

    • The button at the bottom of the Contract for the user changes to 'Unlock Contract'
