Result or Product of this Process
The Pay Req and Invoice process is used to process and obtain approval for a Contractor or Consultant Invoice.
The process includes a step that ensures invoice numbers comply with SAP requirements. (no special characters and length of the invoice number)
An eB BILL process has to be either regular debit or refund credit. You can not mix positive and negative numbers together on a BILL process. So you might need to create two eB BILL invoices to process a single payreq that contains both positive and negative numbers.
All invoices are approved by the Accounting Manager.
The last step in this process passes invoice information to SAP once the Contractor or Consultant Payment Application/Invoice has been approved and is ready for payment via SAP.
This process is used to submit pay requisitions and invoices. It can started by the Project Manager, A/E Lead, Consultant or Contractor. It can also be initiated by the Administrative Assistant when the A/E, Consultant or Contractor is unable to do so.
This process integrates with SAP.

Example A:
When a user places amounts in Column E "This Period" and Column F "Total Materials Presently Stored", the system totals the "Current Work Invoiced this period" (minus the Retainage that is taken out for that period).
The Current Work Invoiced this Period is what is being paid out to clients and the overall total of the BILL.
Example B:
When a new BILL gets started, the Total Materials Stored that was inputted in the previous BILL is AUTOMATICALLY placed in the Total Materials Presently Stored, while the Past amount that was placed in Column E (This Period) is now moved to Column D (Work In Place from Previous Application(s)). The total of column D (past BILL period amount), column F (materials stored past AND present), and column E (whatever is inputted on THIS BILL) is finally totaled in column G. Total Materials stored needs to keep the values in place to properly calculate column G. The individual filling out the values need to add onto that, the values should not be removed.
