It is good practice to review the changes in a Change Order (CO) before sending it for Project Manager approval or to the customer for their acceptance.
CO Review Tabs
In the CO, you will see the following tabs in the top-left corner to review the CO changes:
All – here, you will see all the items—unchanged, newly added, removed, and replaced.
Net – here, you will see the unchanged, newly added, and replacement items.
Changed – here, you will see only the newly added, removed, and replaced items.
+ (plus) – here, you will see the newly added and replacement items.
- (minus) – here, you will see the removed and replaced items.
You have the option to go to any of the specific locations, systems, or phases in the “View By” panel and review the items under the tabs.
Total Price Change
In the top-right corner where the project total is displayed, you will see the price difference introduced by the CO. If the price has increased, the difference is shown in Green. If it has decreased, it is shown in Red.
This is a screenshot of a CO that added $8223 to the project total.
Price Change per Location or System
If you want to see the price changes per location or system, go to a location or system and you will see a summary of prices of newly introduced and removed items and labor.
This is a screenshot of a CO with the summary of items and labor changes for the A/V System products added and removed as part of the CO.
