items in the following screens:
the delivery overview that displays the ordered, confirmed, delivered and invoiced
quantities
The status overview that shows the different status features of the items
the release order overview that displays the release orders are displayed with the
individual released quantities as well as the total released quantity.
5. Choose Goto Back to reach the overview screen.
6. Make your changes and save the document.


Completing Contracts
A quantity contract is complete when there are no more items to be delivered.
A value contract is complete when you enter a reason for rejection. You can define how the
system reacts when you have reached the target value in Customizing for value contracts (item
category).(You define the following reactions: a warning, an error message or no reaction.)
If there are still outstanding items in the contract but you nevertheless want to complete it, you
can assign a reason for rejection to these items. The system then sets the status of the contract
to complete. The procedure for rejecting items in a contract is identical to the procedure for
rejecting items in a sales order. For more information about rejecting items, see Rejecting Items
in a Sales Order.


Displaying Contracts
To display a quantity contract, proceed as follows:
1. In the initial screen, choose Logistics Sales and distribution Sales.
2. Choose Outline agreement Contract Display.
3. The system automatically proposes the number of the last contract you created during
the current work session.
Alternatively, enter the number of the contract you want to display, or, if you do not know
the number, enter the number of the relevant purchase order or delivery.
4. Choose Enter to display the contract.
If more than one contract meets your selection criteria, the system displays a list from
which you can choose.
Displaying a List of Contracts
There are various reasons why you might wish to display one or more contracts:
You want to obtain information on an existing contract, perhaps in response to a
customer inquiry.
You want to display all contracts for a certain material or a business partner for analysis.
You want to display all contracts where data is still incomplete.
The procedure for displaying lists is identical for all sales documents. You can find more
information in the Reports in SD documentation.
