(Enterprise)Create a new version of a contract
Creating a new version of a contract creates a draft version of an existing contract. This new version has the same name as the original contract, but the version number is incremented. When we deploy a new version of a contract, the existing contract is moved to the closed state. We can create a new version of a contract for contracts that are in the approved, active, or suspended states. We can duplicate a contract if to create a new version of an existing contract with a different name. Duplicating a contract does not move the existing contract into the closed state.
