This activity is used to approve a sub contract revision. Once the sub contract revision has gone through the approval process, it can be set to the Approved status. If no formal approval process has been performed, it is possible to skip the Approval In Progress step and go directly to the approved revision.
An approved sub contract revision may be modified. If the Audit Trail Enabled check box is selected, all changes performed on the sub contract, after it has been modified, will be logged to retain a full track history. Items that are deleted will be logged in the Sub Contract/Items/Deleted Items sub tab regardless of the defined audit trail setting.
Even when the sub contract revision has been approved, modifications to the revision, lines and items are allowed.
If a project activity is connected to a contract item, planned cost is registered for this activity, when the revision is activated.
The sub contract revision must be in either the Planned status or the Approval In Progress status.
As a result of this activity, the status of the sub contract revision is set to Approved.
