Move a Contract to Another Customer or Register

··

Last updated on Aug 28, 2026

You can move a Contract to a different Customer or Register once it meets a set of eligibility checks. Contracts serve as containers for key records like Transactions and invoices. A Customer can have one or more Contracts and each Contract can hold one or more Transactions and invoices.

  1. Navigate to the Contract and select Move from the Contract drop-down menu.
