Horizon date | Specify the horizon date for lease calculations. The Horizon Date is used to determine the calculation date until which Planon creates commitments.

For more information, see Using a horizon date. | ||
End date | The contract’s end date. If a value is entered for Contract period, the end date is automatically calculated and displayed in this field.

If you change the End date, the values in the Contract period, Next end date (for accepting and offering party), and Next notice date (for accepting and offering party) fields are adjusted accordingly. If the contract is renewed with a renewal option, the End date is adjusted accordingly. | ||
