deal longer than 12 months
It would be nice to be able to enter a deal that is longer than 12 months, which seems to be the maximum length available currently.
This is probably not something that we are going to take on. As we move forward we are working on many integrations with Billing system and Ad Servers that have much smaller chunks of time and offer the salesperson an opportunity to manage a feedback loop and plan for new changes.
We never run into scenarios where a salesperson truly knows beyond 12 months (and typically only in the case of a full year buy) and as such we have opted to not create a poorer user experience on screen with larger amounts of data like this.
If the need comes up in the future we will definitely consider handling it, but our experience shows that there are many other features that users want before this.

When entering quick deals, it seems the flight date is limited to one calendar year. Some AEs use this to enter annuals for the upcoming year, but cannot enter it through December 2016.
