To add an item

Tips:

• Repeat the steps below for each item posting.
• Do not forget to click <Save> frequently after entering the required fields for an item or item data entry may be lost.
• On administrative items including disincentive or non-conforming items, if the unit price was entered correctly on the change order (as 1.00 or -1.00), the quantity entered in the posting should be the total dollar value. DO NOT enter the quantity field on any item as a negative value as this will result in an error during the payment estimate creation process.
• It is recommended not to post any pending (unattached) items until the change order is approved. An unattached item is an item added to the contract after the contract has been executed as a new item on a change order. Unattached items can be posted on DWRs but are not recognized as contract items by the system until the change order is approved. These new contract items, if posted on an approved DWR, will appear automatically on the next payment estimate created after the change order is approved.
• If several item postings are added to a single DWR, make sure to complete the entry of all the fields noted below including the Quantity Posted. The item posting record can be saved with no value in the Quantity Posting field. To easily confirm this, compare the number of item postings between the Contract Progress Summary component and the Contract Daily Work Report Summary Postings Component.

Tips:

What is the difference between a report and a historical report?

A report can be generated at any time within the application. Some reports have a historical report available at the completion of an approval process. This includes the daily work reports (DWRs), Change Order Report, Contract Project Design Evaluation Report, Contractor Evaluation Report, Items With Unpaid Placed Quantities report, Payment Estimate for Contractor report, and the Payment Estimate Summary By Project Report. For these reports, print this report version until the historical report becomes available.

A historical report is the final report for a specific approval process. This includes daily work reports (DWRs), contract project design evaluations, contractor / subcontractor evaluations, and payment estimates. When the final approval is granted for one of the noted processes, the historical report is generated as a PDF file that is directly attached to the source record (e.g. change order number 0004, payment estimate number 0005, etc.). In the case of DWRs, they are part of an approved payment estimate and the associated DWR Report is created when the final approval is received on the payment estimate. The historical report is the final copy of the report and cannot be edited.

1. From any component, select the Global Actions Menu | Generate Report.
   
   
   
2. On the Generate Report component, select the DWR Report.
