Opening a Supplier Contract Management XML Document  in Microsoft Word – Getting Started

Why do Supplier Contract Management Documents default to open in a XML format?

  • All Supplier Contract Documents created by NUFinancials contain xml tags that allows for tracking of changes within the document.
  • The default setting for these documents is to open in an xml format.

When will this guide apply?

  • When opening a document for the first time in a new browser or if opening a document with a new computer. Settings should default when opening contract documents in the future.
