The owner may request changes to the project, such as changes in finishes, equipment or materials, or additional work. This can either be a ''credit'' or an ''extra''.

		+	In construction, a change order refers to a document that outlines a modification or alteration to the scope of work originally agreed upon in the contract. Change orders are common in construction projects as unforeseen events, design errors, or owner-requested changes can necessitate adjustments to the original plan.
		+
		+	Change orders typically include details such as the reason for the change, a description of the modification, the cost of the change, and the time needed to complete the change. Change orders may be initiated by the owner, the architect or engineer, or the contractor.
		+
		+	Change orders can have significant impacts on a construction project, including changes to the project schedule, budget, and scope. Therefore, it is important to carefully consider and document change orders to ensure that all parties involved in the project understand the changes and their associated costs and implications.

	One way to manage changes in project is to use Pending Change Order module in ViewPoint as your change log. An item can be generated due to Site Instruction, RFI response, Change Order, Change Directive, or any other format of correspondence that changes the original contract document.

 For Project Change Order Fee % set up, the field is under PM Project module, under PM Info tab. However, one needs to always refer back to what was the deal, as if your project have carried contingencies from client to offset future change orders, then the fee has already applied on the contingency, then should not be applied on the COQ again. For this example the Fee and OH should be 0%. If you have questions about what number to use, always talk with your manager first.

 Under PCO items, cost information is put in  under "Estimate/Purchase Detail" Tab - see below for example. I recommend leaving some of the fields empty as Synergy does not generate PO items in Viewpoint, using the vendor field could generate unexpected PO revision and is hard to delete.
