Symptoms

Find that Compare Text icon is not displayed when reviewing contract deviations in a PO having added a standard clause and made it into a Non-Standard clause.  Deviation shows as "Non-standard clause added".  However, when a standard clause is modified then Deviation shows as "Standard Clause Modified" and the compare text icon is shown. Also, when an existing clause is modified and turned into non-standard, the Deviation shows as "Standard Clause Modified" and the compare text icon is shown
