Project Administration Overview for Subcontractors

Allow variable discount rate

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

Allow out of order disbursements

This is a Main 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 Main 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 Main Contractor setting and is not applicable to Subcontractors. When a Main 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 payment applications. Choose this setting to require a Payment Application Approver to offer a reason when restarting the approval process.

Allow approval of modified payment applications

This is a setting used primarily for Australasian projects. When an organisation profile allows the approval of modified payment applications, the VAT Invoice Release Timing changes so that the application releases VAT Invoices as soon as you sign the document.

Allow subcontractor change requests

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

Allow Subcontractors to Bypass Electronic Notary

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

Disable electronic notarisation and require offline notary tracking on all projects and subcontracts

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