Important Notes

All actions such as creating, editing, deleting, and changing the status of a change order depend on the user’s roles and permissions.
The cost of a change order that is set to “Approved” is automatically reflected in the “Revised Budget” column of the relevant cost item in the Detailed Budget table.
A change order is typically created as a “Draft,” then sent to the relevant people for approval, and finally results in “Approved” or “Rejected.”
