How to manage Project Change Requests in iMACS.

Overview

A Project Change Request is any change to the budget or delivery dates that is done after the initial information is entered and the stock status is changed to In Progress. Project Change Requests can be view on the Project summary or class level, and the stock summary or class level. The PCR tab defaults to a list of Project Change Requests that affected the current stock and/or class.

To choose more than one stock number, hold the shift key down, and click the stock numbers.

After all the information has been entered, click the Save button. The system will generate a PCR number.
