Delete a Client Contract Change Order
Objective
To delete a client contract change order from the project's Client Contracts tool.
Background
To remove a change order, you can click the red (x) icon on the line item. However, when the icon is grayed out and not available, it means the change order is associated with other items in Procore. The steps below show you how to remove associated items and then permanently delete a change order.
Important
Before you can perform a delete action, you must:
- Change the status of the change order from 'Approved' to another status as described below. If you want to change the status of multiple change orders, you must apply the status changes in reverse order from how they were approved. For example, if you approved the change orders in sequential order (001, 002, and 003), you will need to remove the 'Approved' status in reverse order (003, 002, 001).
- Unlink any Procore items associated with the change order. This may include Potential Change Orders (PCOs), Change Order Requests (CORs), and invoices as described in the Prerequisites below.
Things to Consider
- Required User Permissions:
- 'Admin' level permissions on the project's Client Contracts tool.
Prerequisites
- If the change order is linked to one (1) or more invoices, you must first delete all associated invoices.
- If the change order is linked to one (1) or more change orders or change order requests, complete the steps in Remove Change Order from a Client Contract.
Steps
