The SOV module closely monitors task progress updates and maintains a dynamic list of SOV items available for claims in the current month's cycle. By leveraging progress data and allocated cost estimates for each task, it computes critical financial parameters such as cost values tied to the month's progress, profit margins, and other key metrics, ensuring precision in project financial management.
- Progress Tracking: The 'My Progress' screen displays a list of items eligible for the current month's SOV, including progress and cost details sourced from contractor-maintained estimates.
- Monthly Submission: Contractors can select items from the 'Progress' screen and submit their SOVs during the submission window set by the general contractor (GC).
- Review and Approval: Submitted SOV items are reviewed by the GC, who can approve or revise them, enabling invoice generation for the billing period.
- Self-Performed Tasks: GCs can also manage and approve SOVs for tasks performed in-house.
