Incorporate Changes in Executing Object

Explanation

The contract change order is used to justify changes to a sales contract, sub contract or project; no execution of the change is done on the actual contract change order object. Use this activity to incorporate the changes into the relevant sales contract, sub contract or project.

Prerequisites

A contract change order in the Active status should exist.
A sales contract, sub contract or project to which the contract change order is connected should exist.

System Effects

If the contract change order is used to justify a change in a sales contract the requested change is included in an active sales contract revision.
If the contract change order is used to justify a change in a sub contract the requested change is included in an active sub contract revision.
If the contract change order is used to justify a change in a project the requested change is included in the project plan.
If the contract change order is used to justify any other change, the change can be implemented manually.

Open the Sub Contract window and query for the relevant contract.
If it has not been created already, create a new sub contract revision and modify the line items according to the change. Add the contract change order to the line item.
Activate the new sub contract revision.

If the contract change order is used to justify a change in a project:
