4. Choose the type of the call. Most calls will be set as weekly as it repeats in a weekly cycle but other options are available from the dropdown such as fortnightly, monthly, and rotational calls.
5. Choose the contract which is paying for this call. Contract will be automatically set if there is only one contract assigned to the client.
