- Each new
invoice helps to define the value of the contract. The final value of
the contract is unknown until the contract is closed.
- Change orders
are not allowed because only invoices can create commitments against the
contract.
- Auto-commit
invoices are not related to each other, so the sequence number is unimportant. A special retainage
release invoice is required to release retainage on auto-commit contracts.
- Each invoice
only shows the line items related to that invoice, not to the entire contract.
- The contract
can only use controlled total billing rules.

- The base
contract defines the value of the contract before invoicing begins. Change
orders redefine the value of the contract.
- Pre-commit
invoices define progress against the commitments on the contract and change
orders. Each invoice builds on the progress from previous invoices progress
against the contract is 100%.
- Proliance
takes the information from previous invoices into account when it performs
calculations on an invoice.
- The Line Items page on an invoice always
shows all of the line items related to the contract.
- The contract
can use any of the billing rules.
