Filter contracts by various date range options. The available data range filters are:

  • Contract Transaction Date
  • Contract Product Transaction Date
  • Contract Canceled Date
  • Contract Refunded Date
  • Contract Updated Date

Contract Type
Filter contracts by type: Product Protection or Shipping Protection. By default, your Contract List View will show both Product Protection and Shipping Protection contracts.
