Contracts within EnergySteward.com can have an unlimited number of 'Provisions' assigned to them. These 'Provisions' are directly related to the key provisions within the underlying contract document. Storing the provision information within EnergySteward.com allows for reports and queries against your contracts, based on provision. More information about contract provisions can be found in the configure contract provisions area within this manual. These provisions are optional, but if entered can greatly assist in analyzing various aspects of your contracts.
