About

When the Contract Cost Event Item is designated as the allocation of Subcontractor, the line item can also have a Subcontractor with an active commitment assigned to it. 


In this setup of a Contract Cost Event line item, the system allows for Commitment Cost Event line items to be populated to the selected Subcontractor from the originating Contract Change Event. This link is available for quick navigation and can be generated on prints and reports via the StratusVue Professional Services Group. 

Copy a Single Contract Event Item to a New Commitment Event

1. Navigate to the Contract Change Event that contains the Commitment Event Item that needs to be created.


2. Once inside the Contract Change Event, locate the Contract Cost Event item for the Vendor that the Commitment Event will be generated for.


3. Select the yellow Create Commitment Event Button


4. The user will be presented with the Copy Cost Event Item to Commitment Cost Event Item pop-up. Here, the user will select the appropriate Commitment Cost Event Type that is being created within the Commitment Events section of the project. 

*It is important to note that Commitment Cost Event Types that are available will vary by Organization. Please contact your Organization Administrator for more information.


5. Once the Commitment Cost Event Type is chosen, select the OK button


At the step, the user is navigated to the Vendor's folder within the Commitment Event that was created.


The Commitment dropdown is populated based on the below:

  • If the Cost Code used is assigned to that Vendor within a Commitment, that Commitment will automatically be selected in the Commitment dropdown of the Commitment Event header section. 
    • If the Cost Code used is assigned in multiple commitments to that vendor, the first commitment the selected Cost Code is used in will be assigned in the Commitment dropdown of the Commitment Event header section.

  • If the Cost Code used is NOT assigned to that Vendor within a Commitment, the Commitment dropdown of the Commitment Event header section will not be assigned, and a Commitment will need to be selected.


The Commitment Cost Event Item that is created will be listed in the Cost Event Items grid as entered in the originating Contract Event. This line can be modified as needed within the Commitment Event. Additional lines can be added as well. Additionally, a link to the Originating Contract Event number and line item will be available. This hyperlink can be used to navigate back to the originating contract item. 


Back in the originating Contract Event, a hyperlink to the linked Commitment Change Event has replaced the yellow "Create Commitment Event" button and is a hyperlink back to the Commitment Change Event. 

Copy Multiple Contract Line Items to the Same Vendor to a New Commitment Event

1. Navigate to the Contract Change Event that contains the Commitment Event Items that need to be created.


2. Once inside the Contract Change Event, locate and select the checkbox for the Contract Cost Event cost items that Commitment Cost Event items will be generated for.

** At this time, only Commitment Events to the same vendor can be pushed at one time**


3. Select the yellow Create Commitment Event button on either of the line items that were selected in step #2


4. The user will be presented with the Copy Cost Event Item to Commitment Event Item pop-up. Here, the user will select the appropriate Commitment Cost Event Type that is being created within the Commitment Events section of the project. It will also notate the Subcontractor and number of line items selected.

*It is important to note that Commitment Cost Event Types that are available will vary by Organization. Please contact your Organization Administrator for more information.


5. Once the Commitment Cost Event Type is chosen, select the OK button 


The landing location at this step will depend on the Cost Codes assigned:


If creating more than one Change Event to the Vendor, the user will land in the Commitment Cost Event folder type selected in step #4 for that Vendor. This occurs when:

  • The Cost Codes selected are assigned within different commitments.
  • The Cost Codes selected include an existing assigned Commitment cost code and a newly assigned cost code.


If creating one change event, the user will land within that Commitment Change Event that is created.

  • The Cost Codes selected exist within the same commitment.


The Commitment dropdowns are populated based on the below:

  • If the Cost Codes used are assigned to that Vendor within a Commitment, that Commitment will automatically be selected in the Commitment dropdown of the Commitment Event header section. 
    • If the Cost Code used is assigned in multiple commitments to that vendor, the first commitment the selected Cost Code is used in will be assigned in the Commitment dropdown of the Commitment Event header section.
  • If the Cost Code used is NOT assigned to that Vendor within a Commitment, the Commitment dropdown of the Commitment Event header section will not be assigned, and a Commitment will need to be selected.
