Introduction
The Contacts application is used for legal agreements that require invoices to be issued on a recurring basis at regular intervals. Each contract therefore contains the items that are to be automatically charged and invoices are automatically generated at the required intervals with these items.

The following functions are available:

The contract highlighted in the overview will be opened using the contract editor. Changes may then be made to the contract.
