View Billable Items for Current Period

The billing module closely monitors task progress updates and maintains a dynamic list of work items eligible for claims in the current month's cycle. By leveraging progress data and allocated cost amounts for each task, it computes critical financial parameters such as cost values tied to the month's progress and other key metrics, ensuring precision in project financial management.

• Progress Tracking: The 'My Progress' screen displays a list of items eligible for the current month's billing, including progress and cost details sourced from contract-based cost allocations.
• Monthly Submission: Contractors can select items from the 'My Progress' screen to create the payment application during the submission window configured in the contract.
• Review and Approval: Once pay app is submitted, the payor reviews the work performed thoroughly, either approving or revising as necessary. Approved Pay Apps enable the seamless generation of invoices for the billing period and submission of the same for payment.
