# Contracts, wages and clauses > Documentation release: **FMRTE 26** (published release). > **WARNING** A contract edit does not run a negotiation, register the player, grant a work permit or exchange a transfer fee. Check those separately when needed. Use **Contract** to change an existing deal's expiry, wages, playing time, bonuses or clauses. [](https://docs.fmrte.com/img/fmrte26/players/contract.png) ## Understand the displayed units - Check **Settings → Currency** and **Wages** before entering money. Weekly, monthly and annual amounts differ. - **Started**, **Signed**, **Joined Club** and **Expires** describe different dates. - **Agreed Playing Time**, transfer status and loan status use the choices shown in the list. ## Extend an existing contract 1. Open the player and select **Contract**. 2. Choose the current-club contract if several are listed. 3. Set **Expires** to the new date. Leave the other dates as they are unless you also intend to change them. 4. Adjust wages or clauses if wanted, then select **Save Changes**. 5. Check the contract in Football Manager. ## Loan contracts After a [loan move](https://docs.fmrte.com/26/players/transfers.md#loan-a-player), reload the player and open **Loan Contract** to set dates, fees, playing time and loan clauses.
