Modifications and document packages
Prepare a modification package from an approved template, review it, compare executed evidence, and download or hand off — without executing anything (PK01–PK06).

/pdcc/acquisitions/contracts/CT-DEMO-007/packagesDocument Packages manages reviewable drafts and source filing receipts. Status comes from recorded workflow events; a downloadable draft is not an executed document.
Modification package
1. Start (PK02)
Purpose (e.g. document a funding adjustment), source action (e.g. TX003 deobligation), reason and template.
2. Select template
The approved template version, e.g.
DEMO-SF30-2.3. Build (PK03)
Modification builder with document preview; user-entered and Scout-suggested values stay distinguishable.
4. Review & verify (PK06)
Approval binds to the reviewed version and authority.
5. Compare executed evidence (PK05)
Only a verified executed instrument can update the common record.
6. Download / handoff / filing
Separate results, each tracked and retried independently.

Template updates (PK04)
When a new template (e.g. DEMO-SF30-3) is available you can Keep current template or Create migrated draft after comparing. An in-progress draft is never overwritten.
Partial saves
If some files saved and others failed, the *save outcome* view lists each step; retry uses the same operation identity and only the confirmed failures.
Contract action states
Preparing, approving, executed and officially recorded are four independent states. Preparing or approving a package can never set Executed or Officially recorded.
