FAR Clauses/Provisions Subtask
Use this subtask to assign applicable Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) clauses and provisions to the contract.
You can manually enter FAR clauses/provisions on this subtask. You can also use the autoload function to have Costpoint automatically populate the table window with the FAR clauses/provisions that are assigned to a specific contract.
This subtask is also updated when you use the Import FAR/Supplemental Regulation Files subtask for the FAR Clause/Provision regulation type.
