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.
