Connect/Disconnect Contract Change Orders
Explanation
Use this activity to connect contract change order forecasts to a budget/forecast
version. Contract change order forecasts can be connected in the Project
Forecast page using the Manage Forecast Connections. Use the
Connect switch to connect/disconnect the contract change order
forecasts in the Contract Change Orders section.
Also, it is possible to connect contract change order forecasts to an EAC
Workbench. Contract change order forecasts can be connected in the EAC
Workbench page using the Manage Change Order Connections.
If a change has been done in the contract change order forecast after it
has been connected to a project budget/forecast or an EAC Workbench, you are
able to update the project budget/forecast or the EAC Workbench with this new
changed amount using the Update command in Project
Forecast Connections.
Contract change order forecasts which satisfy all the below criteria will
be automatically connected to the EAC Workbench.
- Change Capturing Level of the connected Sub Contract

reported.
