Field

Description

Binder sub-tab - If user-defined fields exist for this function, the Binder sub-tab appears. Otherwise, the information appears on the Binder tab with no sub-tabs

Each row in the grid is a binder item. A binder item is an item associated with the record. You can attach a file to a binder item and set reminders for binder items. It can be useful to create binder items for contracts, legal documents, and photos. Use the Binder Item Types screen to create and manage categories for binder items. A paper clip icon appears on the tab when it contains binder items. Use the View Binder Items screen to manage all of your binder items in ProContractor.

Click to add a row to the grid. Click to delete the active row from the grid.

Note: Any binder items attached to the bid are not copied to the project when it is created from the Enter Project Manager Worksheet screen.

When you create the pdf document for a contract invoice, multiple binder items are automatically created —one for each individual format that is valid for the invoice (based on its billing format) and one that includes all formats. The binder item for the Pending COR format is created only if there are pending change order requests for the project.

Binder items for a contract invoice can also be manually created by adding rows to the grid.

Tip: You can create a binder item with an attachment by dragging and dropping a file from the following programs:
  • From Windows Explorer, drag and drop a file to the Binder Items grid to add the file as linked attachment.

  • From Microsoft Outlook, drag and drop an item (such as an e-mail, note, or meeting) to the Binder Items grid to add the item as an embedded attachment. Note that Microsoft Outlook must be installed on your computer to drag and drop an item to the Binder items grid.

    • Note: If you delete the attachment file from the file system, the link is broken.
