Pre-Commit Line Items

When you create a new invoice for a pre-commit contract, Proliance automatically copies the contract's line items to the invoice.

An invoice against a pre-commit contract has the following columns. The invoice needs to be in edit mode before you can modify the fields.

Closed"Scheduled" Columns

On a pre-commit invoice, the Scheduled columns display the base values for the line item from the originating contract or change order.

Closed"To Date" Columns

The To Date columns contain cumulative information from all of the existing invoices against the contract, including the current one. As you edit the This Invoice columns, Proliance increases or decreases the corresponding To Date column values accordingly.

Closed"Previous" Columns

A "Previous" invoice is an invoice that has a lower sequence number than the invoice that you are currently viewing. You cannot edit any of the "Previous" columns.

Closed"This Invoice" Columns

When you create a new invoice, you record the latest progress against the line items in the This Invoice columns. Unlike the To Date or Previous columns, the This Invoice columns do not include totals from any previous invoices.

ClosedOther Columns

Tip:

  • You may encounter an error message when entering a line item value if invoicing is out of sequence or you did not include Progress from previous invoices on the latest invoice.

    To resolve this:

    1. Click Update Line to update all the line items.
    2. Ensure that the total invoiced amount for the line items is within a valid range. This range is between 0 and the Scheduled Amount of the line item.
    3. For example, if the Scheduled Amount is -300, an amount of -200 falls within the valid range. Note that the amount has the same sign (+/-) as the Scheduled Amount.

Note:

  • You can also add a change order's line items to the invoice. For more information, see "Adding a Change Order to an Invoice".
  • If this is the first invoice against a pre-commit contract that was previously an auto-commit contract, Proliance includes all previously invoiced line items on this invoice, with 100% progress against all of them.
