Creating an Instruction from Workspace Documents

Proliance allows you to create an instruction from any workspace document, such as a quote, contract, change order, or an RFI. An instruction document directs contractors to a cost and/or to proceed with the scope of work that is described in the initiating document. For example, when you receive a quote from a contractor, you can create an instruction from this quote with directions to proceed with the proposed work.
