Finding Orders to Accept or Refuse
-
Go to LPG menu → Worklist → All
- Click on Order Not Yet Accepted:
- Orders are listed.
- Note: Engagement Orders and Deliverable Orders usually have consecutive numbers.
- Check the Accept By column to ensure the order is accepted on time.
- Note: If the order is over the acceptance date, it will be highlighted in red.
Accepting Orders
Note: When your firm is engaged on a new matter, assigning a key person and accepting the Engagement Order will automatically assign the same key person and accept all associated Deliverable Orders.
- Click Action / Acquire next to the Order.
- Review Acceptance Within (time to accept) and Approved $ (budget).
- Allocate Key Personnel:
- On the Key Personnel tab, click Edit Key Personnel → Select Key Person (Optionally select an Alternative Key Person) → Submit.
- Click Accept or Accept and Continue.
- Accept: returns to the Orders Not Yet Accepted screen.
- Accept & Continue: opens the Work in Progress screen.
Refusing an Order
- Scroll to the bottom of the Accept Order screen.
-
Click Refuse
-
Enter Reason for Refusal.
- Click Refuse - The client will be notified.
Undo Acceptance of an Order
- From the Order in Progress screen, click Unaccept Order.
- Order returns to NOT YET ACCEPTED.
NOTE
- If a Claim for Payment has already been submitted for the Engagement Order, the unaccept option is no longer available.
- After “unaccepting” the Order, it is still allocated to the same Provider. Not accepting within the designated time limit may negatively impact your company’s star rating with the Client. To avoid this negative impact, the Provider can request the Client to recall the Order. An Order recalled by the Client, as long as it is recalled within the designated time limit, does not impact the Providers rating.
(Factors influencing the Provider star rating are specified on the Provider’s Contract with the Client. See topic Star Rating Overview & Calculation for more information.)
