How does Construction Application for Payment Solution handle Change Orders?

Share this!

Change Order/Extra Work Order information should be entered at the bottom of your original QuickBooks® Estimate in order for CAPS to accurately recognize them as being part of this job, and be included in the Change Order section of the printed AIA® form or plain paper billing form. 

In the manual and in-program Help (accessed via the Help menu --> Contents --> Search), we explain step-by-step how to create items in your Item List that are specifically for Change Orders and/or Extra Work Orders and how to utilize them to their fullest (a general overview on Change Orders is shown in the CAP Demonstration).

If you attempt to create your Change orders/Extra Work Orders as a sub-job of your original job, CAPS will be unable to identify them as being part of this job, because QuickBooks® will also treat this as a separate job, and will issue a separate draw.

In other words, how you need to present Change Order/Extra Work Order billing and how you set it up in QuickBooks will determine how Construction Application for Payment Solution will handle them.
