This chapter contains the following topics:
As a job moves through the organization's approval process, you might need to review and revise change requests before they are approved. You can review requotes, logs, ledger information, and other information about the change request.
When you access the Change Request Entry form, the system displays the current change request. You can view previous values for the change request in the order in which they were created, from the most current version to the oldest, by using the Prior Requote option. After you use the Prior Requote option, you can view the previous versions, from the oldest to the newest, by using the Next Requote option.
The system automatically creates a log when you commit a subcontract account to the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Subcontract Management system. You can review the log and make any necessary changes.
You can select either the Logs Entry program (P4305) or the Log Master Revisions program (P4303) to work with logs. To use the Logs Entry program, you must enter a value of 04 in user-defined code (UDC) 40/VF. You must also specify which log program you want to use in the processing options for Change Request Entry (P5310) or Change Request Subcontract Details (P53301).
You can view all of the accounts for all change requests for a job by reviewing the Change Request by Account report. When you produce this report you can:
Specify what information is contained in the report by selecting different report versions in the Change Request Entry processing options.
Produce this report as a detail or a summary report by setting a processing option.
Review the report online or print the report.
You can view all accounts on a line to review account details, such as:
The account number and subledger numbers.
The original, quoted, final, and best amounts for all accounts.
The contract number and the supplier.
Information about cost, revenue, and subcontract accounts is on separate tabs to make viewing account numbers and totals easier.
You can review general ledger information for each account type on a detail line by using the G/L Inquiry option. The G/L Inquiry option lets you review all general ledger information, including:
The account number.
Posted and unposted amounts.
The original budget for the account.
The invoice number, purchase order number, and document number.
You can display the accounts on a change request for a job by the:
Account type
Account code
Ledger type
Supplier
Specifying how the system displays change request information lets you quickly find the information that you want.
