You select the "Track Subcontracts" option from the Job Cost menu. You can *number* your subcontracts however you want; however, many contractors use the JobId as part of the contract number. You have a maximum of 16 characters for this contract number, so you can suffix the job id with some applicable characters to arrive at a unique contract number. For instance, with a Job Id of 061013 you might number your contracts for that job like this: 061013-0001, 061013-0002, etc. After supplying the contract number, specify the vendor id, the contract date, some sort of descrption of the work to be done and the Job Id. Finally, you need to *add* contract line items that will show what cost code the contract will affect and the original value of the subcontract. If you need to apply change orders to the contract, just edit the contract line items and add change orders in that sub form.
