There is a now a full Contract Manager module which can be accessed from Modules in Shortcuts. This enables you to create and manage contracts with purchase information, start, finish and renewal dates and contract types and many other contract fields You will also be able to run contracts reports within the reporting system or alternatively you can use the new standard report entitled 'Contracts expiring in the next 3 months' and modify if required for your own use.
