Connect Non-Active Change Order to Contract
Explanation
This activity is used to incorporate the planned changes in Change Order into the relevant Sales
Contract or Sub Contract revision before setting the Change Order to Active. This can be
done by executing the command Connect to Contract available on the Contract Change Order.
After connecting the Change Order to the contract for the first time, it is possible to do modifications to the
planned Change Order scope and re-connect to the contract multiple times. In every connection the relevant contract
revision items get updated with the latest values in the corresponding Contract Change Order items.
There is the indication on the Contract Change Order item whether the item is already connected to
the contract, and whether any changes are made on Change Order item since the last connection. Furthermore, it is
possible to remove an item in the contract revision which is added via a Contract Change Order, by setting the
corresponding item on Change Order as Delete Pending and reconnecting the Change Order to the Contract.
Prerequisites
- A Contract Change Order created on a Sales Contract or a Sub
Contract.
- On that sales or sub contract, the Contract Change Order Change Capturing Level should be
set as Contract Items and Connect Non-Active Change Order toggle should be ON.
System Effects
- New Contract Revision Lines and/or Items are added to the connected Contract revision.
- If the Change Order is in Preliminary or Analysis in
Progress status, or the Change Order is in Analyzed status, but no Agreed
values are entered, then the Contract revision items are added considering the Expected values that are available
at the time of Change Order-Contract Connection. But if an Analyzed Change Order is
being connected to the contract after entering the Agreed values, then the Contract revision items are added
considering the Agreed values.
- Change Order Contract items that are connected to the Contract are marked as Connected to
Contract - Yes.
- If any item, which was added to the contract revision through a Change Order, is required to be deleted
through the same Change Order, then Change Order Contract Item’s Delete Status must be set
as Delete Pending. After re-connecting the Change Order to contract, the item will be deleted
from the contract revision. The Delete Status in Change Order Contract item will then be set as
Deleted. The Change Order Contract items labeled as Deleted are read-only and are being excluded
from Cost/Revenue summaries.
