Progress bills and subcontracts

The Progress bills tab lists the contract's bills with the period, what this period adds, the certified amount, the retention and the net before VAT (see Progress bills and subcontracts). The Subcontracts tab shows each subcontractor with its work, retention, value, what it billed and the retention held. New subcontract asks the Subcontractor (a vendor), the Retention, the Work and the BOQ lines with their quantity and rate; press Create the subcontract.

Cost and budget

For people who hold the money right. Each section with its Contract value, Budget, what the Subcontractors and the Site stock cost, the Cost and how much Of the budget it used. Below: the purchases, expenses and labour on the project, the Total cost, what is certified and invoiced, and the Margin. Type the budgets and press Save the budgets.

Issue site stock sends materials to the site: choose the Warehouse, Item, Quantity and Section and press Issue. They leave the warehouse as a goods delivery on this project once the warehouse approves it.

Cost against budget, by section

A contractor's contract is read only by someone who may open its project, and its lines are removed only with the billing right.
