  Key Concepts: 
  Provisional application is a feature in the LO-AGR-APP Application and Call Off component of SAP. It allows users to create an application for a contract that is not yet fully defined. This allows users to reserve the contract number and begin the process of creating the contract, even if all of the details are not yet known. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use provisional application, users must first create an application for the contract. This can be done by entering the basic information about the contract, such as the customer name, contract type, and start date. Once this information is entered, users can then save the application as a provisional application. This will reserve the contract number and allow users to begin creating the contract. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating a provisional application, it is important to enter as much information as possible. This will help ensure that all of the necessary details are included when the contract is finalized. Additionally, it is important to remember that provisional applications are only valid for a limited amount of time, so it is important to finalize the contract before the expiration date.
