Project Administration Overview for Subcontractors

Allow variable discount rate

This is a Head Contractor setting and is not applicable to Subcontractors.

Allow out of order disbursements

This is a Head Contractor setting and is not applicable to Subcontractors. As a Subcontractor, you will receive payment but not disburse payments on TPM.

Allow open ended billing contracts on organisation projects

This is a Head Contractor setting and not applicable to Subcontractors. When a contract allows open-ended billing, there is not a static contract value. This feature is most often used for projects based in the Australasia region.

Allow setting of component type

This is a Head Contractor setting and is not applicable to Subcontractors. When a Head Contractor enables the setting of component types, each line in your Work Breakdown will include a component type. Component types change how your bill for materials.

Require reason when selecting restart approval

If you are a Prime Subcontractor with on-system Sub-Tiers, you will need to approve or reject Sub-Tier progress claims. Choose this setting to require a Claim Approver to offer a reason when restarting the approval process.

Allow approval of modified progress claims

This is a setting used primarily for Australasian projects. When an organisation profile allows the approval of modified progress claims, the Statutory Release Timing changes so that the application releases statutory declarations as soon as you sign the document.

Allow subcontractor variation requests

This is often a Head Contractor setting. If you are a Prime Subcontractor and have on-system Sub-Tiers, you can allow your Sub-Tiers to submit requests for variations. The variation request workflow is typically used for European projects.

Allow Subcontractors to Bypass Electronic Witnessing

This is generally a Head Contractor setting. A Head Contractor can turn on this setting if electronic witnessing is not allowed in the region where the project occurs, but still requires witnessing for some documents. When this setting is selected, all current and future projects will allow all Subcontractors to bypass the electronic witnessing step and instead upload their witnessed paper documents.

Disable electronic witnessing and require offline witness tracking on all projects and subcontracts

Similar to the Allow Subcontractors to Bypass Electronic Witnessing setting, this is more applicable to Head Contractors overseeing a project. Head Contractors may choose to disallow electronic witnessing on all projects and subcontracts, instead opting to use the bypass electronic witness workflow.
