Reopen Contract Change Order

Explanation

Use this activity to reopen a contract change order to make it possible to change or add information if it e.g. has been rejected. When you have set the status to Analyzed most of the information cannot be changed. The only way to add or update this information is to first reopen the contract change order so the status is reversed to Analysis in Progress and then do the necessary changes.

Prerequisites

• A contract change order should exist. The contract change order can be reopened from any status except from Preliminary, Closed or Canceled.

System Effects

• The contract change order is set to the Analysis in Progress status.
• The approval per status lines and corresponding approval routing steps are deleted from the Contract Change Order/Approvals tab and Attachments; i.e. the approval will have to be done again.
• The internally and externally approved dates and rejected dates are cleared in the Contract Change Order/General tab.
• A history record is created and displayed in the Contract Change Order/History tab.
