Reason Code

In Advanced Project Management, you can navigate to Reason Code Set from the Contract Management and Subcontract Management modules:

  • Advanced Project Management > Contract Management > Setup > Reason Code

  • Advanced Project Management > Subcontract Management > Setup > Reason Code

Reason Codes are standard in Kinetic.

If you are creating or editing Reason Codes, refer to the standard Kinetic help article Creating a Reason Code.

In APM, Reason Codes are required for Contract Revisions, Contract Cancellations and Contract Claims for Rates Billing with a No Charge Amount.

  • When used for Contract Revision, the Reason Type is Revision.

  • When used for Contract Cancellation, the Reason Type is Cancel.

  • When used in Contract Claim Entry for Rates Billing with a No Charge Amount, the Reason Type is No Charge.

Default Reason Codes are selected in the Configuration screen for the Automatic Contract Price Change Reason Code and the Automatic Contract Bill Plan Generation Reason Code. See Default Reason Code in the section APM Configuration Entry.
