Is there any way to add a change request to an existing subcontract commitment?

It seems I can only add to change order and create a new commitment purchase order.

Thanks

Michael

Here’s what I would do…..

  1. Go to Construction / Change Orders
  2. Create a new Change Order
  3. Select the Class
  4. Select the Project
  5. Click the “Commitments” tab
  6. Click “Select Commitments”
  7. Select the subcontract you want to change and click “Add Lines & Close”
  8. Enter the amounts, remove hold, and release.

Hope this helps.

I know this is old, but I just did some testing on this topic. and wanted anyone else who comes across this to see the option I found which might have been added since this discussion.

On the Change Request screen > Estimate tab it appears that you have to create a new commitment. When the change request is approved and added to a change order; the commitment changes will default in as a new commitment document, however, on the change order record you can go to the commitments tab and change the commitment type if needed and select an existing commitment to add the change to the existing commitment. Ideally this would be selected on the change request, but the process can be noted to make the changes needed once the request is added to the change order so that the existing commitments are modified.

Hello @msw21,

Thanks for the post. I am in 100% agreement with @Colm Lennon’s reply above. This should allow you to perform the exact tasks you stated the need to do. If you have any questions, please ask.
