Cases — proposed, never opened for you
Open this screen in Saral/projects/subcontractors/cases
Each package's case from a concern to its end — concern, site warning, notice of default, cure or termination, completion by others, the account after termination. Saral proposes; a QS or above decides every step, each recorded from the letter or note that evidences it.

Performance and offboarding: the case
A package's case runs from a concern to its end: concern → site warning → notice of default (the cure period runs) → cured, or termination notice → terminated → completion by others → the account after termination → closed. Insolvency and, only where the signed order allows it, termination at will are their own routes to the same end; a normal finish is completed → offboarded. The stage is worked out from the steps recorded on the case — each one an issued letter or a person's note — never from time passing, and never written onto the package: the package's own status, which the Payment Schedule reads, stays as it is. Saral proposes a concern and never opens one; a QS or above (projects.subcontractors.approve) opens, moves and closes a case and dismisses a proposal; recording who gave legal advice is on projects.commercial.manage. Nothing is sent from here — every notice is drafted in Contract letters and sent by a person. Omitting work in order to give it to someone else is a breach unless the contract expressly allows it, and the screen says so before you record it.
