Supply Item Rates may need to change at some point during the life of a Project. This will lead to a situation where a supply item may have a different rate depending on the timing of issuing the Delivery Instruction from the REGISTER section of QAntrol. The Supply Item Rate can be changed at any point during the Project.
The rate change will be:
•Effective for all new Delivery Instructions issued after the specified rate change date
•Will not be retrospective, i.e. will not affect the valuations for previous Delivery Instructions issued prior to the rate change.
•The rate change date often is a grey line, some Delivery Instructions or individual deliveries may fall on the wrong side of the rate change date line and may need the rate to be changed. The Item Supply Rate may be toggled between the old and new rates for existing Delivery Instructions or Deliveries using the “Override Rate” (Refer Registers Section).
To change the Supply Item Rate:
•Edit the Supplier who's item needs a rate change
•Select the Associated Work Tab and select the desired Item
•Select the “Change Rate” button
•The “Change Rate” popup is displayed confirming the nature of the Rate change
•Select “Yes” to proceed with the Rate Change
•The “Change Rate” Editor is displayed, enter the “New Rate” and select OK.
•The new current “Rate” is displayed in the Supplier Details Editor. The “Rate” history showing previous item supply rates and the date of rate change is viewable in the Supplier Details Associated Work Tab as a child row under the each Supply Item.
