Externally Approve Contract Change Order
Explanation
After information has been submitted to the relevant external approvers their
approval or rejection in return should be recorded. Use this activity to update
information about when and why an external contact person has approved a contract
change order (CCO). The approval of all the external approvers of the CCO is
required before it is considered as externally approved by the system.
Note: Information about the external approval from each contact person can
be viewed in the Contract Change Order/History
tab.
Prerequisites
- The CCO should have a change type that requires external approval.
- A contact person who is classified as external approver should be defined
for at least one address in the
Contract Change Order/Contacts
tab.
- The CCO should be in the Submittal Approved status.
System Effects
- The external Approved Date field in the
Contract Change Order/General
tab is updated when all external approvers have approved the CCO.
- The Approved Date field in the
Contract Change Order/Contacts
tab is updated for the contacts who have approved the CCO.
