Setting Up a Multiple Base Commit BPs Manually with Multiple Payment Applications and SOVs
Construction projects typically have multiple contracts or commitments spread over a time-period. To accommodate multiple contract types or commitments in a project, you can now include more than one Base Commit BP wherein each Base Commit can be associated with a payment application and a distinct schedule of values (SOV).
Note: With this setup, you are no longer limited to configuring only one Base Commit BP with a payment application and SOV in a project.
Prerequisite
You have created one or more Base Commit BPs with Payment Applications and corresponding SOVs.
Procedure
To manually set up multiple Base Commit BPs with payment applications and corresponding SOVs for a project:
- In the Location bar, select your project and switch to Admin mode.
- In the left Navigator, select Setup, and then select Business Process.
- In the Business Process Setup - Current View log, click New.
- In the New Business Processes window, select a Base Commit BP with payment applications.
- Click OK to include the Base Commit BP in the Business Process Setup - Current View log.
- Repeat the above step sequence to add multiple Base Commit BPs.
- Click OK to confirm the alert message that displays when you add subsequent Base Commit BPs.
With this setup, the Schedule of Values log is relocated in the left Navigator. Contact your Company Administrator if you do not have access to the new SOV log location.
Alternative Setup Methods
You can also set up multiple Base Commit BPs by updating shell templates. For more details, see Setting Up Shell Templates with Multiple Base Commit BPs with Multiple Payment Applications and SOVs.
