New 'Enable Always Editable Bill of Quantities' Setting
To provide project team's with the ability to refine commitment contract values on BOQ line items without having to issue a variation for that commitment, Procore has updated the project's Commitments tool to add a new configuration setting for users with 'Admin' level permissions on the tool. This new setting is similar to a setting with the same name in Procore's other Project Financials tools (see What is the 'Enable Always Editable Bill of Quantities' setting?).
Note
Example
The illustration below shows you the new 'Enable Always Editable Bill of Quantities' setting in the 'Configure Settings' page of the Commitments tool.
Why is this important?
When this setting is turned ON in the project's Commitments tool, Procore provides users with the ability to:
- Ability to increase/decrease amounts on line items without having to issue a variation. To avoid having to issue a variation on an 'Approved' commitment contract, users can now increase/decrease BOQ line item amounts.
- Add, update, import and delete BOQ line items on purchase orders and subcontracts. Users can add and update BOQ line items on a commitment contract after it is placed in the 'Approved' status. Users can add/update line items to a commitment contract after adding variations or approving payment applications. Users can also delete BOQ line items on 'Approved' commitments, as long as the line item has not yet been issued. Once issued, line items cannot be deleted or replaced.
