number is set to what company the contract will print the appropriate one. |

when adding a new contract this field will remain blank). |

would do so in this section. |
|

Once you have added all the necessary information then you can add the contract
several ways.
If you are entering more than one contract the best method would be to press the
+ button. This would add the contract and then bring up a new blank screen to
add the next contract.
If you are going to print the contract immediately after you enter it then the
best method would be to hit the printer icon.
Otherwise you can hit the Contract Listing tab and it would ask you to save
changes. |
