Accounting Contract Templates
Contract templates simplify setting up client billing because you don't have to add contracts manually for each client. Instead, you can create contract templates and add them to clients.
How to create contract templates?
To create a new contract template, go to "Settings & Apps" and open the Billing app. Then, navigate to the Templates view.
Before creating contract templates, you should add products/services first. Read more about how to add products to Uku.

How to add a billing template to multiple clients at once?

Click "Contract actions" in the horizontal menu

Important to know:
If you change the contract template, you can apply the same changes in the client contracts associated with the template. However, it is important to note that if you change something in the client contract, the connection between the template and the client contract is lost. In this case, it will no longer be possible to change these customer agreements by changing the template.
You can create several contracts for one client.
