Frequently Asked Questions

Do clients approve change orders online?
Does the budget update automatically?
Can I track all change orders across projects?
What does the approval workflow look like?

You create the change order, add scope and pricing, and send it to the client. They review and approve it digitally through the portal or email with a legally binding e-signature.

How does a change order affect my project budget?

The moment a change order is approved, Kaliun automatically adjusts the project budget, updates affected cost codes, and recalculates profit margins so your numbers are always current.

Are clients notified when a change order is created?

Yes. Clients receive an email notification with a link to review the change order details and approve or request revisions directly from their portal.

Is there a full audit trail for change orders?

Every change order includes a complete history of who created it, when it was sent, viewed, and approved, along with timestamps, IP addresses, and e-signature records for full legal protection.
