**Workflow Summary**
1. Analyst creates a draft credit agreement.
2. Analyst edits and finalizes the agreement details.
3. Director reviews and issues the agreement.
4. Credits are issued to the supplier and recorded in the system.

**Dependencies and Relationships**
• ZEV Units Epic: Issued agreements result in ZEV unit transactions.
• User Management Epic: Determines who can perform each action.
• Credit Applications Epic: Agreements may complement or substitute credit applications in some cases.

Begin by reviewing existing ZEVA1 credit-agreement behavior and the related ZEV Units, User Management, and Credit Applications work. Identify the agreement data model, list and detail entry points, and auth() permission checks. Done means analysts can manage drafts and directors can issue agreements with the required supplier credit records and role restrictions.
