FAQs

Q: CFAS uses different change order forms from others, are both linked in the PW forms?

A: CPMS team has created a change order form that all staff should be using. That form is in PW forms.

Q: Don't working days change when they are added through Change Orders? Do we need to then need to add the days in the Procurement tab?
