Activation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Email hello@interfy.com.au to request the OneCore Cost Plus module to be included in your subscription.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once activated, the “Cost Plus” menu item will appear in your OneCore navigation menu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Setup<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Refresh Procore Data<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Navigate to “General Settings” and press “Refresh all data from Procore”. This allows a OneCore to retrieve the initial information ready to create your first Cost Plus claim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Default Markup<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Navigate to “Default Markup” to enter the global markup default and custom markups for Cost Types.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
This is a required setting as this is the global markup rate for all head contract line items.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Custom markup rates can be applied for each “Cost Type”<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Project Markup<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Navigate to “Project Markup” to enter optional markups per project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If a project does not have custom markup rates entered, the default markup rates (above) are used.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Best Practice Recommendation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Create Head Contract SOV using the the project’s budget<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We recommend importing the project budget into the Head Contract’s SOV. This will ensure that budget codes (cost code \/ cost type combinations) will be able to be matched to a Head Contract SOV budget code.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When creating a new Head Contract, select the “Import” button and select the “SOV from Budget” option. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Create a new Claim (Payment Application)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Navigate to “New Claim Wizard” to create a new claim through the guided claim wizard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 1 – Contract Selection<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  1. Select the “Project” the claim is to be created for.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Select the “Contract” the claim is to be created for. If the contract does not appear in the list, press the refresh icon beside the dropdown.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Press “Retrieve Progress Claims for Review”.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Existing claims related to the contract will be retrieved from Procore and displayed.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Press “Next”.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    NOTE: A new claim can only be created if the latest claim is in the “Approved” state.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    If the latest claim is not in the approved state, the above message will appear and a new Cost Plus claim cannot be created.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Step 2 – Claim Details<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    1. Enter the Progress Claim #.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. The period start and end dates will be prepopulated – adjust these to suit.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    3. Enter the “Billing Date”.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    4. Press “Next”.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

      Step 3 – Select Direct Costs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
      \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
      \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
        \n
      1. A list of direct costs previously cached by OneCore will automatically be displayed for the Start and End dates displayed.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      2. If a direct cost can’t be found in the table, ensure the date fields are within the desired range and press “Refresh from Procore”.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      3. Finding a direct cost is made easier by utilising the “Vendor” and “Cost Type” filters if there are a large number of direct costs for the period.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      4. Press the “Apply Filter” button to display Direct Costs based on the search parameters.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      5. Once all desired direct costs are selected to be included in the claim, press “Next”.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

        Step 4 – Select Commitment Claims<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
        \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
        \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
          \n
        1. A list of commitment claims previously cached by OneCore will automatically be displayed for the Start and End dates displayed.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        2. If a commitment claim can’t be found in the table, ensure the date fields are within the desired range and press “Refresh from Procore”.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        3. Finding a commitment claim is made easier by utilising the “Vendor” and “Cost Type” filters if there are a large number of commitment claims for the period.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        4. Once all desired commitment claims are selected to be included in the claim, press “Next”.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

          Step 5 – High Level Review<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
          \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
          \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
            \n
          1. All of the selected Direct Costs and Commitment claims will be displayed in this stage of the wizard.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          2. To view a Direct Cost or Commitment claim within Procore, click the link provided on each line item.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          3. Each Direct Cost and Commitment will have a “View” icon that is a link to the Procore cost.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          4. Press the “Prev” button if a cost has been missed or a cost needs to be excluded.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          5. Press the “Next” button to generate the Claim within Procore.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
            \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

            6. Once the “Next” button is pressed, a confirmation popup will appear. Once “Continue” is pressed, a Head Contract Claim will be created in Procore with the description “[CP IN PROGRESS]”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

            Step 6 – Additional Line Items<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
            \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
            \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
              \n
            1. This step of the wizard allows any additional lump sum amounts to be included within the Head Contract Claim.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            2. Press the “Next” button.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

              Step 7 – Detailed Review<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
              \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
              \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
                \n
              1. The Detailed Review step displays a summary of all expenses included in the Cost Plus claim with a column depicting the final marked up amount.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
              2. At this point, if amendments need to be made, clicking on either the “Prev” button or clicking on the step will allow the user to adjust the Cost Plus claim.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
              3. Press “Next” once a review is complete.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
                \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

                4. Once the “Next” button is pressed, a confirmation popup will appear. Once “Yes, publish it!” is pressed, the Head Contract Claim previously created in in Step 5 will be updated with “Work Completed” values entered and the prefix “[CP IN PROGRESS]” removed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                Step 8 – Completed<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
                \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
                \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

                The final stage of the wizard shows a summary of the claim with the following details:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                  \n
                1. A link to the claim in Procore.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                2. A summary of the claim details.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                3. A detailed breakdown of included line items showing original and markup amounts.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

                  Deleting and Unlinking a Claim<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

                  If a claim needs to be deleted, firstly, the claim needs to be unlinked, then deleted from Procore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                    \n
                  1. Navigate to “Cost Plus Claim History”<\/li>\n\n\n\n

                  3. Press “Fetch Claim History” <\/li>\n\n\n\n
                  4. A summary of all Cost Plus claims will be displayed.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                  5. Press the red “Unlink” icon<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
                    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

                    Once the red “unlink” icon is selected, a popup is displayed to confirm the unlinking.<\/p>\n\n\n

                    \n
                    \"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n
                      \n
                    1. This process only detaches linked Direct Costs and Commitment Claims so they are able to be selected for future use within the Cost Plus wizard.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                    2. The draft claim in Procore needs to be removed.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

                      <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                      Unmatched Line Items<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

                      The core of the Cost Plus Wizard’s process is to automatically link up budget codes from Direct Cost and Commitment Claim line items to a Head Contract’s SOV budget code. If a situation arises where budget codes cannot be found in a Head Contract SOV, the following prompt will appear:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                      \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

                      There are a number of options to continue at this point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                      Update the Head Contract SOV<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

                      Simply updating the Head Contract SOV with the missing budget code and restarting the wizard will ensure that this warning does not appear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                        \n
                      1. Press the “Restart” button in the wizard.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
                        \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

                        2. This will rename the [CP IN PROGRESS] prefix in the draft Head Contract claim to [CP REMOVED] to prompt the user that this claim needs to be deleted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                        3. Update the Head Contract SOV with the missing budget code and restart the claim wizard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                        Create a Variation (Change Order)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

                        Creating a variation (change order) to include the unbudgeted cost then restarting the wizard will ensure that this warning does not appear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                          \n
                        1. Press the “Restart” button in the wizard.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

                          \"\"<\/figure> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

                          2. This will rename the [CP IN PROGRESS] prefix in the draft Head Contract claim to [CP REMOVED] to prompt the user that this claim needs to be deleted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                          3. Create a variation (change order) to include the unbudgeted cost code \/ cost type and restart the claim wizard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                          Continue with Unmatched Line Item<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

                          Another option is to simply continue with the Cost Plus claim and ensure that the unallocated amount is manually entered into the Head Contract Claim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                            \n
                          1. Note down the amount discovered as “Unmatched Line Items”.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                          2. Press the “Next” button to continue with the claim wizard until it is completed.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                          3. Navigate to the Procore Head Contract claim and update the “Work Completed” value in an existing line item with the amount that was deemed “Unmatched”.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                          4. This will ensure that amounts not missed with the Head Contract claim.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

                            Tools<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

                            Direct Cost \/ Commitment Claim Search<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

                              Hiding Costs<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

                              Costs that have already been billed for in a claim not<\/strong> created by the OneCore Cost Plus module can be hidden so that they do not appear in the “Claim Wizard”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
