When should I create a Commitment Change Order?

Anytime there is a change in scope or dollar amount to a Commitment agreement in Pegasus. This can include examples like:

  • Extra Work Orders/Requests

  • Change Orders

  • Budget Modifications

  • Balancing Change Orders

Statuses

Commitment Change Orders have two statuses: Draft and Approved.

While in the Draft status, Change Orders are not live in the system and can be modified as needed.

Approved Change Orders are locked and live in the system (depending on the Change Order's Effective Date).
