Company and Commitment
The Company and Commitment columns on the Change Request Schedule of Values Line Items are used to manage creating the Line Items on Commitments and Commitment Change Orders and assigning the work to different Subcontractors or vendors.
Each Line Item can:
- Be automatically created on a Commitment or a Commitment Change Order Schedule of Values (and the Company and Commitment on the Change Request Line Item will be populated with that Commitment and the Company the Commitment is for)
OR
- Reference a Commitment or a Company (associated with a Commitment) (but not be created on a Commitment or Commitment Change Order Schedule of Values). In this case the Company or Commitment will be used in various functions (see below).
Selecting a Commitment impacts the Company and vice versa.
- If a Company is entered before the Commitment, only Commitments assigned to that Company are displayed in the Commitment drop down list.
- If no Company is entered, all Commitments and Commitment Change Orders display in the list.
- A Company can be entered and the Commitment left blank.
- If a Commitment is selected, the Company is automatically populated with the Company for that Commitment.
Both the Company and Commitment are optional fields.
