Why This Matters
Change orders are a fact of life in contracting. Processing them correctly keeps your projects on budget, your financing in sync, and your customers informed about any scope changes.
What You'll Need
Admin access to SubcontractorHub
A web browser (Chrome or Edge recommended)
Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1
From the main menu, go to the“Customers” tab and select the customer for whom you want to create a new change order.
Step 2
Click on the “View Detail” button of the original project.
Step 3
Click on the “Change Order” button in the top right corner.
Step 4
A message will appear indicating that a change order was created previously, asking if you would like to create a new change order. Click"Yes."
Step 5
A new change order will appear on the proposal page with a new ID.
Real-World Example
💡 When a customer adds a battery to their solar project mid-install, the project manager creates a change order that automatically updates the financing — keeping everything in sync without manual calculations.
Pro Tips
