Award Sub Contract

Explanation

This activity is used to award a sub contract. If an agreement has been reached with the preferred supplier, the sub contract can be awarded.

Note: If a supplier income type has been specified on one or more of the existing contract items, this supplier income type must be valid for the preferred supplier. If not, the contract cannot be awarded to this supplier.

Once the sub contract is awarded, it will not be possible to modify the supplier on the contract.

If the Refresh Item Taxes check box is selected when awarding the contract, the saved tax codes, percentages and amounts will be refreshed in the contract item level, based on the latest tax basic data of the contract, supplier, project or company. You can modify the refresh tax code setting according to your preference.
