The contract must include a quantity term that specifies the amount of goods being sold. This is a crucial element of a sales contract, as it helps to avoid disputes and confusion about the delivery and payment of goods. While a correct title, date, and parties' contact information are important elements of a written contract, they are not essential for enforceability.
