Understanding Change Request Entry

Change requests track changes to a job as it progresses. You can enter a single line item or multiple line items for each change request. Typically, you set up a change request that relates to a specific aspect of the job. For example, if the job is to construct an office building, change request 1 might be for tracking foundation details, change request 2 for framing details, and so on.

Change requests consist of:

• General change request information.

• Account distribution information for cost, revenue, and subcontract accounts.

• Subcontract information that enables you to send the account distribution information to the appropriate contract in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Subcontract Management system.

• Revenue information that enables you to send the account distribution information to the appropriate contract in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Contract and Service Billing system.

• Detail status codes to track the approval status.

After you have entered basic information for the change requests, you can enter additional information, exit to other programs, print reports, create requotes, and update statuses. Use the Form and Row menus from the Change Request Entry form to access these features.
