Product or Result of this Process

The purpose of this process is the review and execution contracts and/or Purchase Orders.

The process generates an e-Builder Purchase Order following issuance of the SAP PO, and automatically triggers the Contract Approval process whenever the PO data meets the thresholds for a formal contract document.

Note that in e-Builder a Purchase Order is referred to as a Commitment.

    Enter information for each commitment item.

    • Item Number - a sequential number denoting each line.
    • Budget Line Item - Associate each entry with a Budget Line Item.
    • Current Budget - Displays the current budget.
    • Description - Description of the Budget Line Item
    • Retainage Percent - enter the retainage percent when applicable.
    • Amount - the amount of the the commitment line
    • Allowance Item - Check if it is an allowance item.
    • Custom Fields - used to enter the cost object.

    Pay particulate attention to the Retainage percentage as that determines how retainage is calculated when invoices are submitted.

    A Retainage of five percent should be expressed as 5.00 (as in the example)

    The following list of items, though part of the budget template, cannot be used to generate a commitment. You cannot place internal charges on a PO.

    If you are issuing a PO to cover vendor expenses use the reimbursable line item for that vendor type. For example, for A/E expenses use B-30-125 A/E Reimbursables.
