About Creating SubCOs/SCOs and POCOs from the PCOs

About creating SubCOs/SCOs and POCOs from the PCOs.

When using this form to approve pending change orders, the system will automatically generate a subcontract change order (SubCO/SCO) or PO change order (POCO) for each PCO detail line item that meets the following criteria:

  • The PCO detail item is associated with an existing subcontract or PO - for example the PCO item changes an existing subcontract or purchase order line item, or creates a new line item on an existing subcontract or PO

  • The PCO detail item is not already associated with a POCO or SCO - for example you did not use the Create > PO Change Order or Subcontract Change Order option on PM Pending Change Orders to create a POCO or SCO from the PCO detail item

    Once the PO change order or subcontract change order has been created, it will be linked to the PCO using the Related Items feature.

Note: If you would like to automatically approve the SubCOs/POCOs related to the PCO, make sure that you check the Approve related SubCOs/POCOs for interface box on the Info tab. Click here for more information.
