MR Justification of Rates

Open with MR Analysis › Justification of Rates (Ctrl+J). This justifies each rate against the current market rates and writes the justified rate back to the estimate’s JR column.

Using the form

Select an item to view and edit its market-rate analysis and loadings.
Click Run Justification to recompute (runs in the background).
Click Save & Close to commit the justified rates. This is what the Justification report and the estimate’s JR column depend on, so always exit through this button while the form is editable.

Locked after a bill / agreement. MR Justification feeds the project’s rates, so once a downstream stage is signed off (DNIT/Agreement finalised or a bill exists) it is frozen and shows a 🔒 banner. The Run / Save buttons are disabled. In that case close the form with the window’s X — it will close normally because there is nothing to save. To edit again, remove the downstream stage (delete the bill / un-finalise the agreement).

Reports

MR Analysis › Justification Report opens Report Preview directly on the market-rate justification. Cost Componentwise shows the cost breakup.
