In the Project Invoice Entry window, you can create a schedule for billing multiple jobs on a single invoice. Project-level invoices can be created with or without bill codes. Third party billing is supported in project-level billing. Project-level billing creates a single Accounts Receivables transaction while distributing revenue to multiple jobs, divisions, or General Ledger accounts. Credit memos can also be created in this window.

  1. Choose Transactions > Job Cost > Project Level Billing.
  2. Complete the following fields, as necessary.
    • Document Type: Choose a document type.
    • Document Number: Enter a document number or accept the default.
    • Project Number: To create a project bill code invoice, enter a project bill code project number.
    • Document Date: The document date completes automatically based on the system date. You can change it.
    • Bill To Customer, Bill To Customer Name: These fields default from the selected job. You can accept the default or you can choose a different customer. 

      Note

      If you choose a different customer, the Bill To address that prints on the invoice is the Bill To address set up in Customer Maintenance.


    • Project Customer ID, Project Customer Name: These display-only fields default from the project number selection.
    • Batch ID: You can assign project bill code invoices and non-project bill code invoices to the same batch, but you can't print either type of invoice from the Receivables Batch Entry window. You must print them from the Project Invoice Entry window.
    • PO Number: Enter a purchase order number.
    • Job Number: Enter a job number.
  3. If this is a project bill code invoice, when you tab off the Job Number field, the Schedule Invoice window opens. Use this window to assign bill code amounts to be billed at the job level.
  4. In the Schedule Invoice window, complete the following fields:
    • Application Number: When you save the invoice, the application number rolls down to all jobs assigned to that project on that invoice.
    • Period To: Enter the last day of the billing period for the invoice.
    • Bill Code Number, Description, Account Number, Schedule Value, Previous Billings, Bill %, Current Due: Enter the bill code information and billing amounts or percentages.
    • Current Bill: Choose the expansion button in the Current Bill field to open the Application For Payment window. Complete the window as usual.The retention amount entered in the Retention Withheld field will override the retention percent entered in the Job Maintenance window. 

      Note

      When you bill for retention due on a project-level invoice, retention must be invoiced at the job level.


  5. Choose Save to close the Schedule Invoice window and return to the Project Invoice Entry window.
  6. If this is a non-project bill code invoice, you can edit the Current Billing Subtotal field. The current billing subtotal is set based on posted costs for the job and profit types assigned to the job's cost code.

    If you edit the current billing subtotal amount in the Project Invoice Entry window, the entire amount billed will be applied to the Labor cost element. To edit the amount billed at a cost-element level, choose the expansion button in the Current Billing Total field to open the Project Job Billing window. Edit the amounts billed and choose Save

    Note

    If this is a project bill code invoice, when you choose the expansion button in the Current Billing Total field to open the Project Job Billing window, only the Retention Due field can be edited. Use this window to issue a retention invoice for project bill code jobs. 

    The Current Billing Total field is automatically calculated based on the current billing subtotal and retention withheld for the job. If you edit the current billing subtotal, the retention withheld and subtotal are automatically updated.  

    Note

    For project bill code invoices, the expansion button in the Current Billing Subtotal field opens the Schedule Invoice window.


  7. In the Project Invoice Entry window, choose the Print button.
    • If the invoice is a non-project bill code invoice, the JC Project Invoice report prints.
    • If the invoice is a project bill code invoice, the project-level version of the Application for Payment invoice prints. The report will print all bill codes with the same project number and invoice number. If the same bill code exists on more than one job on the project, the report will print one line item that totals all the same bill codes on the project. 

      Note

      You can also choose File > Print to print the Project Invoice Edit List, which lists jobs assigned to this invoice.
