Frequently Asked Questions
1. Contracts are not populating when creating a recurring master ticket. Why?
- The reason you are not able to see the contracts in the dropdown when creating a recurring master ticket is due to the "start" and "end" dates of the contract. If your start and end dates occur in the past, the contracts won't be available and will not populate.
- If you have a start date and to date that are entered as today, the contracts won't be available and will not populate.
- If you have a start date that occurs in the future, the contracts won't be available and will not populate.
