Within this view you will see 6 default columns available for your use, which are detailed below:
Total Commitments = The sum of all agreements (contracts, executed change orders, addendums & work authorizations)and out of contract costs if applicable
Out of Contract = The sum of Invoice amounts not fully tracked to Agreements (For more information on tracking costs to your agreements, see this article)
