   • Total Original Contract Amount
     Displays the total of the original contract amounts of open job contracts.
   • Total Change Orders
     Displays the total of all change orders.
   • Total Contract Amount

     Displays the total amount remaining on the contract.
   • Total Retention Withheld
     Displays the total of all retention withheld against purchasing invoices.
   • Total Released Retention Invoices

3. Select the Stop-and-Go Light indicator in the Subcontractor Status window to open the Subs Job Summary window where you can double-click a job to open the Subcontractors Maintenance window. A red light indicates the subcontractor is on hold for a job. A green light indicates the subcontractor is not on hold.

You can add jobs, cost codes, and required dates for the subcontractor using the Add Jobs button. See Adding subcontractors/vendors to a job.

You can create a purchase order for the subcontractor using the Create PO button. See Withholding Retention on Purchase Order Invoices.

When you create a purchase order for a subcontractor or master subcontractor, the original contract amount is not updated for the subcontractor. You must update the original contract amount manually in the Subcontractors Maintenance window.

You can select the printer button in the Vendor field to select a subcontractor report to print. See Subcontractor reports in the Dexterity reports section of the Signature Reports documentation for more information.
