Statewide Systems Maintenance
All statewide systems will be unavailable due to a PeopleTools patch upgrade starting Saturday, September 7 through Sunday, September 8. Please plan around this time to minimize interruption of critical business functions. We apologize for the inconvenience. This upgrade will have minimal impact on user experience and no impact on application processing.
Users must clear their internet browsing history and cache before they log into these systems on Monday, September 9.
If you experience difficulties trying to log in, view data, or access data in any of the statewide systems mentioned above, clearing your browsing history and cache may help resolve these issues.
Impacted systems include:
Thank you,

Updating or Editing a Supplier Contract Shell in SWIFT
If a supplier contract shell must be edited or updated, the Office of State Procurement recommends that in most cases agencies should update the existing record. There are limited circumstances when an agency should create a new version of a contract shell.
Users should create a new version of a contract shell ONLY if one of these reasons apply:
Refer to the Create a New Version of a Supplier Contract Quick Reference Guide.
To edit a contract shell, refer to the Edit a Supplier Contract Shell Quick Reference Guide.
Editing a contract shell includes, but is not limited to, adding contract lines, changing contract dollar amounts, changing Administrator/Buyer, extending the contract Expire Date, and amending contract documents.
There are two options to view contract changes.
Option 1: Select the View Changes link in the contract Header section.
Option 2: Select Contract Change History from the left menu on the Contract Entry page.
