Approve a Main Contract

Objective

To change the status of a main contract for a construction project to 'Approved.'

Background

After the main contract is created, you can follow the steps in Update the Bill of Quantities on a Main Contract. Once the line items on the BOQ are complete and the agreement between the project owner and your company is finalised, you can place the contract into the Approved status. This action allows your project team to begin creating variations (see Create a Main Contract Variation) and main contract payment applications (see Create an Owner Payment application).
