If the check box is cleared and if the new approver is not available and has a delegation set up for the current date, the system will reassign the selected records to the delegate if the delegate is available. If the delegate is unavailable, the system will reassign the requests to the delegate of the delegate. The system will continue the search in this way until it assigns an approver that has no active delegations set up for the current date or it detects a loop in the chain of delegations (in which case you will have to specify a different approver).

The change date must belong to an open financial period of the master calendar.

Approval Date The date that has been communicated to the customer as the approval date of the agreed-upon changes.
Contract Time Change, Days A positive or negative number of days that represents the delay of the contract.
Reversing CO Nbr. The reference number of the change order that reverses the currently selected change order. If multiple reversing change orders have been prepared for the selected change order, the system shows a link that you can click to open the list of reversing change orders in the Reversing Change Order dialog box.

If the change order being reversed is related to a commitment, in the reversing change order, the quantity and amount of a line cannot exceed the Received Qty. and Received Amount of the corresponding commitment line, which a purchase order line on the Details tab of the Purchase Orders (PO301000) form or a subcontract line on the Details tab of the Subcontracts (SC301000) form. Also, in the reversing change order, the amount of a line cannot exceed the Unbilled Amount of the corresponding commitment line.

A commitment line of the reversing change order cannot reduce the Order Qty. of a purchase order line or subcontract line to 0. If you need to reduce this quantity to 0, you need to cancel the purchase order line or the subcontract line instead of processing a change order.

This box is shown on the form if the change order was reversed or is a reversing one.

Description The description of the change order.
Class

The class of the change order, which is defined on the Change Order Classes (PM203000) form and provides default settings for the change order.

By default, the system inserts the change order class selected in the Default Change Order Class box on the General tab of the Projects Preferences (PM101000) form. You can change the class, if needed.

Project

The project associated with the change order.

If the change order has at least one line on the Revenue Budget, Cost Budget, or Commitments tab, you cannot change the project for the change order.

Customer The customer associated with the project.
External Reference Nbr. The external reference number. You manually enter this number, which can be an identifier required by the customer or a number from an external system integrated with MYOB Acumatica.
Revenue Change Nbr.

The unique number of the change order that affects the revenue within the project. This number is an integer that the system assigns sequentially, starting from 0001. Duplicate numbers within the project are not allowed. If the change order cannot affect the project revenue or is a reversing change order, this box is read-only and contains N/A.

You can manually change the system-inserted Revenue Change Nbr. to another four-digit number. If you need to use mixed characters for a revenue change number—that is, some combination of letters, symbols, and numerals—add a four-digit number to the character string, resulting in a revenue change number such as CO#0001. If you manually change this number for the change order, you should make a similar change to the Last Revenue Change Nbr. of the project on the Summary tab of the Projects (PM301000) form so that the system continues to assign these numbers correctly.

For more information, see Single-Tier Change Management: Revenue Change Number.

Original CO Nbr.

Table 14. Table Columns
Button Description
Change Request Ref. Nbr.

The reference number of the corresponding change request if the commitment line has been created based on a change request. A commitment line of the change order originated from a change request is associated with only one estimation line of the corresponding change request.

This column is shown if the Change Requests feature is enabled on the Enable/Disable Features (CS100000) form.

Status

The status of the commitment line of the change order, which specifies the action to be performed on the release of the change order. The status can be one of the following options:

  • Update: The line updates an existing commitment line associated with the project and project task.
  • New Line: The line adds a new line associated with the project and project task to the selected document (purchase order, project drop-ship order, or subcontract).
  • New Document: The line adds a new document line associated with the project and project task to a new document.
  • Reopen: The line updates an existing completed or canceled commitment line associated with the project and project task, which also entails reopening the related document if it has been closed.
Tip:
The quantity in a commitment line of the change order that has the New Line or New Document status cannot be negative. To be able to specify a negative amount in the commitment line with any of these statuses, you must set the quantity of the line to 0.
Project Task

A task of the project. If you add a new line and the project has the default project task, this task is automatically specified in the column.

Inventory ID

The identifier of the stock or non-stock item associated with the commitment.

Cost Code

The cost code associated with the cost budget line of the project.

This column is shown if the Cost Codes feature is enabled on the Enable/Disable Features (CS100000) form.

Description The description of the commitment that is associated with the project, project task, account group, and, optionally, cost code or inventory item.
Quantity The quantity of the commitment line of the change order. If you add a line by using the Select Commitments dialog box, the system sets the quantity to 0, and you need to specify it manually.

If the line has the Update or Reopen status, this is the quantity to be added to or extracted from the quantity of the existing commitment line. If the commitment line has the New Line or New Document status, this is the quantity to be specified in the newly created commitment line.

Tip:
The quantity in a commitment line of the change order that has the New Line or New Document status cannot be negative. To be able to specify a negative amount in the commitment line with any of these statuses, you must set the quantity of the line to 0.

If the selected change order is a reversing change order, the quantity in a commitment line of this order cannot exceed the Received Qty. of the corresponding commitment line. This line is a purchase order line on the Details tab of the Purchase Orders (PO301000) form or a subcontract line on the Details tab of the Subcontracts (SC301000) form.

Also, a commitment line of a reversing change order cannot reduce the Order Qty. of a purchase order line or subcontract line to 0. If you need to reduce this quantity to 0, you need to cancel the purchase order line or subcontract line instead of processing a change order.

For more information, see Change Orders for Commitments: Commitment Updates on Release of Change Orders.

UOM The unit of measure of the commitment.
Unit Cost The cost of the specified unit of the commitment in the currency of the corresponding document. By default, the system copies the unit cost from the line of the corresponding commitment document (purchase order or subcontract). You can change the unit cost manually.

If you change the unit cost manually in an existing commitment line (that is, in the line with the Update status), after you release the change order, the system will update the values in the corresponding commitment document line as follows:

  • The unit cost from the commitment change order line is copied to the commitment document line.
  • The quantity from the commitment change order line is added to or subtracted from the quantity in the commitment document line.
  • The amount from the commitment change order line is added to or subtracted from the amount in the commitment document line.
    Tip:
    The system does not recalculate the amount in the commitment document line based on the updated unit cost and quantity.

For more information, see Change Orders for Commitments: Commitment Updates on Release of Change Orders.

Amount The amount of the commitment in the currency of the commitment document (purchase order or subcontract). By default, the amount is calculated as the Quantity * Unit Cost specified for the line. If you add a line by using the Select Commitments dialog box, the system inserts an amount of 0, and you need to specify it manually.

If the line has the Update status, this is the amount to be added to or extracted from the amount of the existing commitment line. If the commitment line has the New Line or New Document status, this is the amount to be specified in the newly created commitment line. If the line has the Reopen status, the amount is always 0.

Tip:
The quantity in a commitment line of the change order that has the New Line or New Document status cannot be negative. To be able to specify a negative amount in the commitment line with any of these statuses, you must set the quantity of the line to 0.

In a commitment line of the reversing change order, the amount cannot exceed the Received Amount of the corresponding commitment line. This line is a purchase order line on the Purchase Orders (PO301000) form or a subcontract line on the Subcontracts (SC301000) form. Also, the amount of the line cannot exceed the Unbilled Amount of the corresponding commitment line.

For more information, see Change Orders for Commitments: Commitment Updates on Release of Change Orders.

This column is available only if the Construction feature is enabled on the Enable/Disable Features (CS100000) form.

Retainage Percent

The percent that is used for calculation of the amount to be retained for the line. The retainage amount is calculated as (Ext. Cost – Discount Amount) * Retainage Percent.

The system determines the default value by using the following rules:

  • If the line has the Update and Reopen status, the system copies the default retainage percent from the corresponding line of the subcontract or purchase order.
  • If the line has the New Line status, the system copies the default retainage percent from the settings of the subcontract on the Financial tab of the Subcontracts (SC301000) form or the settings of the purchase order on the Other tab of the Purchase Orders (PO301000) form.
  • If the line has the New Document status, the system copies the default retainage percent from the vendor specified in the line. If the Apply Retainage check box is cleared for the vendor on the Financial tab of the Vendors (AP303000) form, the system inserts 0 as the default retainage percent. If you specify a nonzero retainage amount in the line, the system will select the Apply Retainage check box in the created new document, regardless of the retainage settings of the vendor.

You can override this value if the change order is assigned the On Hold status. If you do, the system recalculates the retainage amount accordingly.

For more information on how change orders created for commitments affect the retainage values in the lines of the purchase orders and subcontracts, see Change Orders for Commitments: Commitment Updates on Release of Change Orders.

This column is available only if the Retainage Support feature is enabled on the Enable/Disable Features (CS100000) form.
