Creating a Model Log

Access the Model Logs form.

Model Log

Enter a value from the Model Log Types (43/ML) UDC table to identify the model log to which you add log types. You must complete this field before you access the Model Logs form.

Log Type

Enter a value from the Commitment Log Type (00/LG) UDC table to identify the type of information in a log entry. The log type is used to group similar types of entries.

Status Type

Enter a code from the STSC (H00/SX) UDC table to specify whether the requirements for the log line have been satisfied. Values are:

Blank: The requirements have not been satisfied, the log line is not active, or no status is required.

Y: The requirements have been satisfied.

N: The requirements have not been satisfied.

Issue Date

Enter the date that the log entry was issued. For example, the effective date for an insurance policy is entered in the Issue Date field.

Expired Date

Enter the expiration date of the log entry. For example, in the case of a submittal requirement for an insurance certificate, the termination date for the policy would be entered in the Expired Date field. The termination date would then be used by the Log Report/Update program (R43300) or the Logs (F4305) Report/Update program (R43540) to update the status field. If the expired date is earlier than the date that you run the program, the system sets the status to N for the log entry.

P E (pay effect)

Enter Y to issue a warning message if log requirements are not met. Various warning messages appear during progress payment entry when outstanding log requirements exist.

Generally, you enter Y when the submittal requirement is of such importance that regular payments to the subcontractor can be suspended if the submittal requirement is not properly satisfied. This code is normally used with submittal log entries.

ID Code (identification code)

Enter an identification code associated with the log entry. The field can be used for abbreviated report identification.
