    • Enable Stored Material Retention. Place a checkmark in this box to enable stored material retention on Client Contract Variations
    • Level of Detail to Display on Variations. The level of detail that is selected here determines how variations are displayed on the 'Detail' tab of the HC progress claim.

Place a checkmark in this box so that once a head contractor approves a HC/Client progress claim, the subcontractor progress claim is also approved. This functionality will only be enabled if HC progress claims are prefilled with progress claims. To learn how HC progress claims are prefilled, see Create a HC/Client Progress Claim.
    • Show Cost Code on PDF. Place a checkmark in this box to show cost codes on the PDF. There is no cost code column in the Configurable PDF tab, but cost codes will show in headers if grouped by cost code.
