### When will a change order be needed? 

In the Solo proposal, a change order may be needed when changes are made to a proposal that affect the system production (changes to shade, tilt, or azimuth, or if a new array is added). These changes may trigger a check for [design validation](https://help.gosolo.io/palmetto-lightreach-design-validation?hsLang=en), and the job will follow the normal design validation flow:

- If the changes made are still **within Palmetto LightReach's accepted variance range**, then no change order will be needed.
- If the changes made are **outside of Palmetto LightReach's accepted variance range**, then a change order button will appear on the proposal. This **must be** clicked from the Solo proposal for the change order to process correctly.

Changes to modeled production, system size, customer information, and other common scenarios may require a change order per the Palmetto LightReach process. View all applicable change events and notes in the Palmetto LightReach knowledge base [HERE](https://help.palmetto.finance/en/articles/8305960-change-orders). For additional questions or assistance, contact the Palmetto LightReach support team via the chat option in the Palmetto LightReach knowledge base.

### Design Change Orders

If you've already qualified for a Palmetto LightReach quote and need to make changes to the design, you can do so from the Solo proposal. **On the same proposal** that contains the approved Palmetto LightReach quote, make the desired adjustments to your Solo design.

The changes you make will trigger a check for [design validation](https://help.gosolo.io/palmetto-lightreach-design-validation?hsLang=en), and the job will follow the normal design validation flow:

- If the changes made are still **within Palmetto LightReach's accepted variance range**, then no change order will be needed.
- If the changes you made are **outside of Palmetto LightReach's accepted variance range**, then a change order button will appear on the proposal. This **must be** clicked from the Solo proposal for the change order to process correctly.

**It is important that this process is done through the Solo proposal.** If the quote is voided and adjusted from only the Palmetto LightReach portal, the customer will become out of sync with the Solo proposal which may cause errors.

### Pricing Change Orders

Pricing change orders will need to be done through the Palmetto LightReach portal. Follow the Palmetto LightReach Change Order process [HERE](https://help.palmetto.finance/en/articles/8305960-solar-energy-plan-change-orders). This will allow you to void the current quote and contracts in Palmetto LightReach, which will remain synced with Solo. From there, you'll be able to re-qualify with the updated options or pricing from the Solo proposal.
