Separate Subcontracts from Purchase Orders in Cost Contracts Tool

Separate Subcontracts from Purchase Orders in Cost Contracts Tool

Subcontracts and Purchase Orders are handled differently in many cases. It would be helpful to separate these functions in the Cost / Contracts section of Cost Management. For example we have no need to request vender feedback for the SOV on a purchase order and do not need an action required notification. Also in many instances are not sending it directly to the vender, such as a PO to obtain materials from a local home improvement store. Not sending the vender limits us from sending the PO to our in house team through the tool. Separating these tools would also for customization of the email outgoing notification which is different from a subcontract.

Hello @cavilaCGYAT 

I would like to better understand why they can't share the same view, than create yet another view if that makes sense given we already have so many.

EG it sounds like having different email templates based on contract type, like we've just done for custom attributes based on type etc would be helpful?

What are the other nuances which are problematic?

Sorry, I didn't quite follow this "Not sending the vender limits us from sending the PO to our in house team through the tool."
