1.  Assign/review Contract Type Code for Employee Contracts.  The contract type code value is used to define a group of contracts.  The code may have a value of up to 10 characters.  Some examples are Teach23, Admin23, or Trans23.  Using this process provides the ability to group contacts by type.  This allows contract selection by groups during the duplication process making the assignment of start and end dates easier.
