Construction contractor -- Has anyone found a good work around for Adagio Jobcost to track change orders?

Hi Eva,

Adagio JobCost tracks change orders already, what workaround are you referring to?

Great. That means we can get reporting on proposed vs. actual including proposed changes, correct?

In Adagio JobCost, the only way to change an estimate after costs have been posted is through posting a Change Order. You could find out the original estimate by backing the change orders out of the current estimate. You could do this with Crystal Reports, and I think you could do this with GridView.

Andrew:

Unfortunately I think this falls apart when you want to determine the estimate for each individual change order. Also I don't see where in Job Cost you can track actual costs and revenue associated with a specific change order.

My thinking though is that a well crafted set of phase and category codes could be used to accomplish this.
