Add Contract Change Order Approval

Explanation

This activity is used to add an approval to the contract change order (CCO). A contract change order may need an approval process to proceed during several stages.
Example: Before the impact of a contract change order is analyzed, the contract manager or change manager may be required to approve that the scope of the change is within the policy of the company, or approval maybe required before the CCO information is submitted to an external party. The same approval routing can be used in several stages of the CCO, and therefore can be initially defined at the time the CCO is created. It will be triggered during the relevant status change in the CCO.

Prerequisites

• A contract change order should exist.
• Approval lines should be predefined in the Contract Change Management/Basic Data/Approval Rule page if you need to have them as default values in the Change Order Approvals page.
• IFS Document Management should be installed if you want to use the Attachments to add lines for an approval routing. 

System Effects

• An approval is added to the contract change order.
