Introduction

A Contract is a binding document between a renter and their customer containing the details of the rental or sale. When creating a Contract in Texada Web, the user has the option to save the new Contract as a draft. Draft Contracts are working documents that do not charge the Customer or affect Product availability, and are often used when information required to finalize the Contract - such as a PO number - is not available. 

Draft Contracts can be viewed, modified, and converted into live Contracts via the Contract Draft List page. To reach this page, navigate to Contracts Draft List in the left side bar.
