How do I record a subcontractor's progress and turn it into an order and certification?

Steps

  1. Click New, choose the Sub Contractor, their Contract and the Date. Tick Create OC if you want a purchase order.
  2. Click Load: the contract lines are created with Qty Budget, Qty Last and Unit Price.
  3. Write in Qty Current what was executed in the period: Qty Accumulated adds the previous and the current.
  4. Click To approve and then Done. With Create OC ticked, a draft purchase order is created to the subcontractor with what was executed; open it from Purchase Order.
  5. Click Certify: the customer certification of each budget is prepared, in the current stage, with those quantities. You can see it in the Certifications button.
  6. Open the certification, review it, validate it and certify it.
Warning

To move to Done at least one quantity greater than zero is needed: "You must enter at least one quantity greater than zero.".

If the budget already has a certification in Draft or Loaded, that certification is reused and its lines are reloaded only with the capture's items.

Site note

Make one capture per period on the same contract: Qty Last adds up that item's earlier captures that are in Done or Certificate.

The order lines use the Payment Status Product from the settings; if there is none, a product named after the item. Check the product before confirming the order.
