Detailed Description Tab
On the Detailed Description tab, you can view, add, change, or delete a detailed description of the change request.
The tab contains a rich text editor, which includes a text area and a formatting toolbar.
Markups Tab
On the Markups tab, you can view, add, change, or delete the document-level markups of the change request. When a new change request is created for a project, the default markups are copied from the Document Markups table on the Defaults tab of the Projects (PM301000) form and can be manually overridden.
A document-level markup is applied to the change request only if each part of the project budget key—project task, account group, and optionally, inventory item or cost code—are specified for the markup on this tab.
The table toolbar has only standard buttons.
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Type | The type of the document markup. You can select one of the following options:
|
| Description | The brief description of the markup. |
| Value | The percentage or amount of the markup, depending on the markup type. |
| Amount Subject to Markup |
The amount to which the markup is applied. For percentage and fixed markups, this amount is calculated based on the Line Amount values in the estimation lines of the change request on the Estimation tab, reduced by any inclusive tax amounts. For more information, see Change Requests: Configuration of Markups. |
| Markup Amount | The calculated markup amount. The system calculates the markup amount depending
on the type of the markup, the amount subject to markup, and the amount in the
Value column as follows:
|
| Project Task | The project task that is associated with the markup. |
| Account Group | The account group that is associated with the markup. |
| Cost Code |
The cost code that is associated with the markup. The column is shown if the Cost Code feature is enabled on the Enable/Disable Features (CS100000) form and Task and Cost Code is selected as the Revenue Budget Level for the project on the Summary tab of the Projects (PM301000) form. |
| Inventory ID |
The inventory item that is associated with the markup. The column is shown if Task and Item is selected as the Revenue Budget Level for the project on the Summary tab of the Projects (PM301000) form. |
| Tax Category |
The tax category applied to the markup amount of the line. When you add a line, the system inserts the tax category based on the following priority:
If neither the inventory item nor the project task has a tax category, this column is empty. You can select a tax category manually. |
Approvals Tab
This tab displays the approval details for the selected change request. If change request approval has been configured, the change request is automatically assigned for approval when it is taken off hold. Authorized users can approve or reject the change request on the current form by using the Approve or Reject command, respectively. Alternatively, they can mass-process records that are pending approval by using the Approvals (EP503010) form.
This tab displays the approval entries associated with the selected record. If the record has existing Approved or Rejected entries and is put on hold for editing, these entries are preserved on the tab and the Obsolete check box is selected for them. Approval entries with a Pending decision are deleted. When the record is resubmitted for approval, new approval entries are created for this approval cycle. You can filter the approval entries on the tab by selecting one of the following filters: All Records, Approved, Current (default), Pending, or Rejected.
This tab is available only if the Approval Workflow feature is enabled on the Enable/Disable Features (CS100000) form and an approval map is specified for change requests in the Change Request Approval Map box on the Approval tab of the Projects Preferences (PJ101000) form. If no map is specified in this box, change requests do not require approval.
The table toolbar has only standard buttons.
