Add Financial Markup to Commitment Variations
Objective
To add financial markup to the Commitment Change Orders (CCOs) associated with a purchase order or subcontract.
Background
Using the financial markup options in the project's Commitments tool, teams can choose between applying a markup percentage (%) on all line items or individual line items:
- Horizontal Markup. Applies a percentage amount of financial markup to individual line items associated with a purchase order or subcontract.
- Vertical Markup. Applies a percentage amount of financial markup on all of the line items associated with a purchase order or subcontract.
Things to Consider
- Required User Permissions:
- 'Admin' level permissions on the project's Commitments tool.
- Additional Information:
- Financial markup is distributed proportionally on each line item in a change order's Schedule of Values (SOV).
- Financial markup is applied to the cost codes and categories on those SOV lines in the budget.
- Horizontal markup is included in the SOV's subtotal and is included in the vertical calculation when the markups are used in conjunction.
- Limitations:
- When you apply financial markup to a CCO, you cannot add those CCOs to your subcontractor invoices.
