• Approvals:
  When using Standard approval mode for Subcontract Claims (as opposed to Workflow), the default approver is now controlled by a new Control Parameter ‘Default Assigned Approver’ with [Default | None] as options
  
  1- Default will set the Assigned Approver to the subcontract administrator (if any) else job manager, else no default. The person must be in the approval list, hence have an approval limit and be active.
  
  2- None will leave Assigned Approver as blank.

This applies to the Subcontract Claims and Subcontract Claim Attachments popup.
