Cause codes

Cause codes are a standard set of coding you can configure for your organization to highlight reasons why change was observed on the project. When a quantity item change occurs, you are required to use cause codes.

You can manage cause codes for your organization in Settings > Design > Quantity Forecasting > Cause codes.

Steps

You can do any of the following actions:

• Add - Enter an ID and a description, and then click the Add Cause code icon.

• Edit - Click in the fields, and then enter text.

• Delete - Click the Delete cause code icon to the right. You cannot delete cause codes assigned to a quantity change note on a project.

• Sort - Select the cause code, and then click the up and down arrows to the right of the table to adjust the position of a cause code.

When cause codes are created, they become available to all projects in the organization. For more information, see Quantity change notes.

Considerations

You must have Level 3 – Account Admin permissions in InEight Platform or a role with the applicable permissions in Quantity Forecasting.
