Exporting subcontracts from 9-5 Takeoffs to 6-7-1 Subcontracts

Note: This functionality is available only if you have the Estimating Module.

Note: When you export subcontracts from 9-5 Takeoffs, Sage 100 Contractor does not display the warning that the subcontract exceeds the budget amount plus approved change orders for the job/phase/cost code/ cost type combination. We recommend that, after exporting subcontracts, you should run the 6-1-12-21 Committed Costs report for the correct job to verify that subcontracts do not exceed the budget.

To export subcontracts:

1. In the Sage 100 Contractor main menu tree, double-click 9-5 Takeoffs.
2. In the Takeoff Launch window, double-click a job to start a takeoff.

3. On the Export menu, point to Subcontracts, and then select one of the following commands:

   • Job.
   • Job/Phase.
4. Select the subcontracts you want to export, and then click Export.
5. Close 9-5 Takeoffs.
6. Open 6-7-1 Subcontracts.
7. In the data control box, enter the record number for the subcontract that you want to view.

Important! Sage 100 Contractor only uses cost type 4-Subcontracts to create subcontracts.
