Contract Limits in SSM Accounting Control (36.9.10) determines whether the system uses limit amounts when you create a contract, and whether you can view and change coverage records in Contract Maintenance.

When No, you cannot define limit amounts for contract types in Contract Type Maintenance—only coverage percentages. The system applies these coverage percentages to the contract as defined. You cannot modify them in Contract Maintenance; limit prompts and frames do not display.

When Yes, you can copy limits from the contract type into a new quote or contract and modify them at all levels of a contract: header, default end users or items, and detailed lines. Copying limits is discussed in the following sections.
