+= Agreements
+
+An “agreement” is a way of recording a business arrangement or contract that your
+business makes with other companies or individuals. Some common examples of
+ agreements include Payment Terms (where you allow a customer up to 30
+days to pay you) or Prompt Payment Discounts (where you offer a reduction on the
+amount owing if your customer pays you before a certain date)
+
+At the time of writing, OFBiz allows you to create the following type of agreements
+
+ * Product
+ * Purchase
+ * Sales
+ * Employee
+ * Commission
+ * End User Licence
+
+The most common agreements you will use will be Sales Agreements (for your
+Customers), Purchase Agreements (for your Suppliers) and Commission Agreements
+(for your Sales Representatives).
+
+== Sales Agreement
+
+A “Sales Agreement” is an agreement between you and your customers. A customer
+can also be another business. You can create a range of conditions for your
+customer including giving them such as payment discounts or special payment terms
+and credit limits.
+
+If you have installed OFBiz with the demo data then there are already examples
+of Sales Agreements created for you.
+
+== Purchase Agreement
+
+A “Purchase Agreement” is an agreement between your business and a supplier. You
+may have negotiated special conditions such as delivery, volume pricing and
+invoice terms.
+
+If you have installed OFBiz with the demo data then there are already examples
+of Purchase Agreements created for you.
+
+== Commission Agreement
+
+A “Commission Agreement” is an agreement that is used to calculate how much money
+a Sales Representative will get when products they have promoted or marketed are
+sold to customers. The rate paid to the Sales Representative is can be based on a
+fixed or variable on a percentage of each sale they make. These amounts can be
+quite small amounts so it can be easier to consolidate multiple commission
+payments into one large payment that is paid monthly.
+
+If you have installed OFBiz with the demo data then there are already two example
+Commission Agreements created for you.
