If both Subcontracts or Purchase Orders can be created, see New Commitment.

If only Subcontracts s can be created, see see New Subcontract (Initiate).
New Subcontract - Form Navigation
The New Subcontract form displays all the information about the Commitment. See New Subcontract - Form Layout for more information.
When a Subcontract is added, the General component displays by default (and is always displayed).
The Schedule of Values component always displays as well.
The other components that display depends on User Permissions.

General Component

Note* The General component has a lot of data and may require scrolling to see all the information.
To enter the General information for a new Subcontract, see New Subcontract - General Component (Examples & Steps).
Use the Form Navigation Menu options to switch between Components
The Form Navigation Menu options are used to switch which of the Components of the Commitment display in the middle section of the form.
The options that display on the Form Navigation Menu depend on the permissions the User has.
The currently selected component is highlighted in blue writing.
Click on the text on the Form Navigation Menu to toggle between the components.
The menu options may appear with a () and a number next to it. This is the number of items in that component.
When toggling between components, the top and bottom sections of the form don't change, just the middle section changes.
