Introduction

A Contract is a binding document between a renter and their customer containing the details of the rental or sale. In Texada Web, a draft Contract is a Contract that has been created and saved but not finalized.

Draft Contracts give Texada Web users the ability to capture Contract details without billing the Customer. Unless the “Book Selected Groups/Products” option is enabled in Texada SRM at System Maintenance → Configure System Settings → System → Company Parameters → Contract Parameters → Documents → Counter Worksheet Parameters, Product availability will also be unaffected.

Once created, draft Contracts can be reviewed and edited by different Users, then converted to live Contracts when ready.
