How do I edit or cancel a contract, and what do the contract statuses mean?

What you are allowed to do to a contract follows its status. Understand the statuses first and you will know why one button appears and another does not.

Contract statuses

• Draft — on creation. The only state in which the contract can be freely edited or deleted.
• Active — after the customer signs. The vehicle counts as rented for the whole period.
• Overdue — set automatically once the return date passes with no return recorded.
• Completed — after the return is confirmed and the contract closed.
• Cancelled — via the cancel button; the vehicle goes back to available.

Editing

1. Open the contract and press Edit — Figure 1. You get the same tabs: details, add-ons, additional driver, images, terms.
2. Change what you need and save; the total is recalculated for you.
3. To lengthen an active contract use Contract extensions, not the date fields.

Cancelling

1. From the contract page press Cancel contract — Figure 2.
2. Write a reason — optional, but it saves an argument later.
3. The vehicle returns to available if the contract was active or overdue.

Notes

• Do not delete a signed contract and retype it; cancelling keeps the trail, deleting erases it.
• A completed contract cannot be edited; if you find a mistake, handle it with a separate financial document rather than reopening the contract.
• Overdue is a warning, not a penalty; review the contract list daily so you chase late returns early.
