The amount registered on a contract line represents the agreed amount that you pay or receive for the use of an asset. During the life of a lease, this amount can change due to manual adjustments or indexation.

Planon supports the indexation of contract amounts using various indexation methods. All historical amount changes — whether caused by manual updates or indexation — are recorded by Planon in separate life cycles, ensuring a complete audit trail of the contract amount over time.

With the Price level amounts feature, you can register future agreed price changes at the current price level. These price level amounts serve as a reference for indexation. Whenever the contract is indexed, Planon automatically recalculates and adjusts the amounts accordingly. For more information, see Registering a price level amount.
