Markup Section Structure
Counterparty's markup: The markup you've received from the counterparty will be displayed at the top of the comparison section. It will also be highlighted within the document's body.
The available fallback options for each negotiable term will be shown beneath the counterparty's markup. If you're using a premium plan, multiple fallbacks will appear in the order you've specified within the template.
Edit a term
To accept the counterparty's markup, select the "Accept" button located below the markup. This will replace the corresponding phrase in the document body with the counterparty's markup.
To reject the counterparty's markup: Click the "Reject" button below the markup. This action will remove the highlighted markup from the document body. Then you have the option to proceed to select an appropriate fallback to apply.
You can directly choose a fallback to apply. This action will immediately reject the counterparty's markup and replace the corresponding phrase in the document body with the selected fallback.
To undo the previous actions, select the "Undo" button near the title section. This will remove the actions you've taken, restoring the document’s settings to their original state.
