Similar to "Import from Excel" feature for creating a Purchase order, it will be useful to have an "Import from Excel" feature for creating a Subcontract. It will be useful to have this feature supporting different Subcontract types (Lumpsum, Cost Plus, Unit based).
One way to address this could be:
user goes into a Project and creates a New Subcontract. fills in the Header part of the subcontract and chooses the subcontract type.
Then in the Line entries section, have the "Import from Excel" feature made available.
Agree 100% and I think this is absolute must have. I have posted similar comment under request to allow upload of subcontract SOV. I would extend this step further and look at importing entire subcontract from Excel (subcontract header + SOV) with ability to do bulk import. That will allow for mass upload of data which invaluable at the start up of the project or during the process of system conversion.
