Objective

To add a change order to the Contract Room in Portfolio Financials.

Background

The Contract Room is a shared portal where vendors can submit change orders and invoices directly to the project team for approval throughout the duration of the project. The Change Orders tab of the Contract Room is where change orders can be added and reviewed.

Things to Consider

  • Required User Permissions:
  • Additional Information:
    • Invoices and change orders are typically added by a contact on the vendor team, but can also be added by a member of your project team. The interface for vendors is nearly identical, except vendors cannot see your budget.
    • If your organization has the 'Change Order Breakdowns' feature enabled for your account, you can choose to break down costs for a change order. See Add a Broken Down Change Order in the Steps section below. 

Steps

  1. Navigate to the relevant Contract Room by clicking the name of the cost item in the project's Cost Tracker
    Note: Cost items with a Contract Room are marked with a ribbon icon-ribbon-pfcp.png icon.
  2. Click the Change Orders tab.
  3. Click Add Change Order.
