Processing Progress Payments

This chapter provides an overview of progress payments and discusses how to:

Click to jump to parent topicUnderstanding Progress Payments

You make progress payments to the subcontractors as they make progress against their contracts. You draw progress payments from the funds that are committed to their contract.

To make a progress payment you must first enter a voucher into the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Subcontract Management system. Vouchers contain the details of a payment and enable you to create a payment that is drawn against the commitments for a contract. After you enter a voucher, you can review and post it. You can then work with the voucher to change the method that the system uses to process payments. You can also correct a voucher that was entered incorrectly.

In addition, you make progress payments to release some or all of the retainage against a contract. Retainage is a percentage of the committed amount that is held until a specified date after the completion of the contract.

When you are ready to make payments, you can progress payments.

You can also set threshold amounts for progress payments. The currency that you specify in the Supplier Master (P0401) is used as the default currency for the threshold amount. During progress payments, the system checks to see whether a voucher exceeds the threshold specified in the Subcontractor Threshold program (P4355). If the threshold amount has been exceeded, the system places the voucher on hold. The voucher is then on a pay status code hold. You can set vouchers on pay status code holds for threshold by setting the processing options in the Process Tab-Threshold pay status code on the Voucher Match, or Progress Payment, program (P4314).

Progress Payments and Subcontract Vouchers

To make progress payments, you must first create a voucher in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Subcontract Management system. Vouchers contain the details of a payment and enable you to create a payment that is drawn against the commitments for a contract. You use vouchers to determine the amount and type of payment that you are processing.

Before you can pay a subcontractor, you must create a voucher that:

You can also create vouchers:

Progress Payments is a version of the Voucher Match program (P4314). It includes specific information for the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Subcontract Management system. The system provides a Work With Contracts form on which you can further specify which contracts you would like to match. You can select whether you want to match contracts, receipts, retainage or all three. You can also access the Subcontract Ledger Inquiry program (P0411) or the Subcontract Order Entry program (P4310). The processing options for P4314 include a Progress Payments tab. On this tab you can specify how the system processes payments.

Note. Set the Option Default processing option on the Progress Payments tab of P4314 to 1 in order to have the system match the quantity and amount when performing voucher match.

American Institute of Architects (AIA) Application for Payment

The AIA Application for Payment is similar to the American Institute of Architects (AIA) Document G702, titled Application and Certificate for Payment. It is a report that lists base contract and change order commitment amounts in addition to previous amounts that were billed and retained.

Additionally, you can print and send the Waiver of Lien form when you send a subcontractor the AIA Application for Payment. The Waiver of Lien states that the subcontractor has been paid and that there are no outstanding liens associated with the work on the contract.

This section provides overview of subcontract vouchers, voucher matching, and invoices received in an alternate currency, and discusses how to:

Click to jump to top of pageClick to jump to parent topicUnderstanding Subcontract Vouchers

You must create a voucher before you can pay a supplier or a subcontractor. You create vouchers in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Accounts Payable A/P Standard Voucher Entry program (P0411).

You create a voucher from the order detail line to make progress payments on a contract, or to release retainage.

You can create a voucher for an amount if you are paying against a lump-sum contract. A lump-sum contract is a contract in which you specify progress payments as amounts. If you have multicurrency turned on, you can enter a voucher for the designated currency type. You can include retainage in lump-sum contract vouchers.

You can also create a voucher for units if you are paying against a unit-based order. In a unit-based order, you specify progress payments based on the number of units completed. You should enter either the number of units for which you are paying, or the gross payment. The system then calculates the remaining value based on the price per unit.

For example, if you enter a voucher for 1,000 square feet of drywall at a cost of 0.25 per square foot, the system calculates the gross payment as 250.00. Conversely, if you enter a voucher for 250.00 with a unit price of 0.25, the system calculates the number of units as 1,000.

If you have multicurrency turned on, the system calculates the total values based on the currency that you select. For example, if you enter a voucher for 1000 units at 0.25 per unit, the system calculates the total payment in the currency you specify.

You might need to make a correction to a voucher. To make the change, you must create a new voucher that reflects the adjustment to the previous voucher.

Click to jump to top of pageClick to jump to parent topicUnderstanding Voucher Matching

To match a voucher, you must locate the subcontract record that corresponds to the progress payment that you want to make. The system creates a voucher interactively when you match the record to a payment.

You can match order detail lines to invoices to create vouchers. For example, if a subcontractor sends you an invoice for 100.00, you must locate and match the order detail lines that contain the corresponding 100.00 worth of services.

Note. You can select multiple order detail lines to match on a single voucher.

You must purchase against account numbers to enter new detail lines during the voucher match process. You cannot add stock-based order detail lines during the voucher match process.

When you try to create a voucher against an order line for which a receipt is required, you receive an error.

When you try to create a voucher against an order that has a payment hold, any of these results might occur:

You can also enter a specific tax amount for each receipt record on the Voucher Match form. If you enter a tax amount, you must also enter the tax rate/area and an explanation for the tax.

To account for variances in the exchange rate, you can set up AAIs. If you enter a new exchange rate during the voucher match process, the system creates journal entries to account for the variance between costs incurred at the old exchange rate and costs incurred at the new exchange rate.

Click to jump to top of pageClick to jump to parent topicUnderstanding Invoices Received in an Alternate Currency

If you enter a subcontract order in a domestic or foreign currency and a subcontractor submits an invoice in an alternate currency, you cannot automatically match the domestic or foreign order to the invoice. Instead, you must manually convert the alternate currency invoice amount to the domestic or foreign currency and then enter the voucher with that (domestic or foreign currency) amount.

For example, if a French company enters an order in Canadian Dollars (CAD) and the supplier submits the invoice in Japanese Yen (JPY), you must manually convert the invoice amount to the domestic (EUR) or foreign (CAD) currency and then enter the voucher for that amount. Likewise, if a Canadian company enters an order in Japanese Yen and the supplier submits the invoice in U.S. Dollars (USD), you must manually convert the invoice amount to CAD or JPY and then enter the voucher for that amount.

For future transactions, consider changing the currency code on the supplier master record so that orders, vouchers, and payments for the subcontractor are processed using the alternate currency.

Processing options enable you to specify the default processing for programs and reports.

Defaults

These processing options define the default information that the system uses during Voucher Match (P4314).

1. Inquiry Order Type and 2. Voucher Document Type

Specify the type of document.

This UDC (00/DT) indicates the origin of the transaction. Document type codes are reserved for vouchers, invoices, receipts, and time sheets, which create automatic offset entries during the post program. (These entries are not self-balancing when you originally enter them.) You must enter a value that has been set up in UDC 00/DT.

We have defined these prefixes for document types, and we recommend that you do not change them:

1. As If Currency

Specify that you want to view domestic or foreign amounts in a currency other than the currency in which the amounts were originally entered.

Specify the currency code in which to view the as if currency. For example, to view domestic or foreign U.S. Dollar (USD) amounts in the euro, specify EUR. If this processing option is left blank, the system does not display the As If Currency Code field in the header, nor does it display the As If Amount and As If Open Amount columns in the grid area.

Note. As if currency amounts are stored in a temporary memory, and are not written to a table.

2. As Of Date

Specify an as of date for the As If Currency processing option.

This system uses this date to retrieve the exchange rate from the F0015 table. If this processing option is left blank, the system uses the system date if you specify a currency code in the As If Currency processing option.

Note. A valid exchange rate between the domestic or foreign currency and the as if currency must exist in the F0015 table, based on the as of date.

Manual Payments

These processing options control the creation of manual payments. Use these processing options only on the version of the A/P Standard Voucher Entry program that you use for manual payments without voucher match.

1. Manual Payment Creation

Specify whether to generate manual payments instead of automatic payments.

This option applies only to manual payments without voucher match and is not available in multi-company and multi-voucher modes. Values are:

For example, indicate what the system does when you attempt to delete a voucher that contains a purchase order from the Supplier Ledger Inquiry form. Values are:

Blank: Do not permit editing (default).

1: Warning.

2: Error. If a conflict exists between this processing option and the Voucher Message processing option for Voucher Entry MBF, the value set here overrides the value set in Voucher Message processing options.

Voucher Match

These processing options enable you to process matched vouchers from the procurement system rather than standard vouchers.

1. Match Processing

Specify that you want to change the default voucher type from standard vouchers to matched vouchers.

If you choose to run the voucher match program, you can select either the three-way voucher match or the two-way voucher match. Values are:

Blank: Run Standard Voucher Entry (P0411).

1: Run Voucher Match (P4314) in Procurement.

Alternatively, on the Non-Stock PO Processing menu (G43B11), select one of these:

Receive & Voucher POs.

Match Voucher to Open Receipt. The Voucher Match Program (P4314) does not access the MBF processing options (P0400047). Therefore, the MBF processing option settings do not affect Voucher Match processing.

You might want to reverse a voucher. For example, you reverse a voucher when you return the items for which you created the voucher. If the voucher has been posted, the system reverses the corresponding journal entries. If the voucher has not been posted, the system deletes the entries.

Note. Do not delete a voucher in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Accounts Payable system if you created the voucher in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Procurement system. The voucher should be deleted in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Procurement system.

2. Voucher Match Version

Specify that you want to accept the default voucher match version, or enter a specific version number for the Voucher Match program (P4314) in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Procurement system.

You must complete this processing option if you enter 1 in the Match processing option. If this processing option is left blank, the system uses ZJDE0001.

Multi Company

This processing option enables you to process vouchers for multiple companies rather than standard vouchers.

1. Multi-Company Single Supplier

Specify whether to process vouchers that represent expenses for multiple internal companies.

These multi-company vouchers expenses are distributed to different general ledger and offset bank accounts, but to the same supplier. Values are:

Blank: Enter a standard voucher.

1: Enter a multi-company single supplier voucher.

Note. The manual payment function is not available for this type of voucher processing.

Alternatively, access this processing option by choosing Multi-Company Single Supplier from the Other Voucher Entry Methods menu (G04111).

Multi Vouchers

This processing option enables you to enter multiple vouchers rather than standard vouchers.

1. Multiple Vouchers

Specify that you want to enable you to quickly enter multiple vouchers for one or more suppliers.

Unlike the standard voucher entry method, which is a two-step process, the multiple voucher entry methods are a single-step process. Values are:

Blank: Enter a standard voucher.

1: Enter multiple vouchers with a single supplier.

2: Enter multiple vouchers with multiple suppliers.

Note. You can use the multiple-voucher entry methods to add vouchers only. To change, delete, or void them, you must use the standard voucher entry method.

Also, the manual payment function is not available for this type of voucher processing. For additional information, as well as other limitations to multiple voucher entry, consult the documentation or online help for Entering Multiple Vouchers.

Alternatively, access this processing option by choosing either Multi Voucher - Single Supplier or Multi Voucher - Multi Supplier from the Other Voucher Entry Methods menu (G04111).

Logging

This processing option enables you to enter logged vouchers rather than standard vouchers.

1. Voucher Logging

Specify whether to enter a voucher before you assign it a general ledger account. At a later time, you can redistribute the voucher to the correct general ledger accounts.

You can specify a default general ledger account for preliminary distribution, as well as a suspense trade account for logged vouchers. To do this, use AAI PP (Preliminary Distribution for Voucher Logging) and PQ (Suspense A/P Trade Account for Voucher Logging). To use AAI PQ, select the Use Suspense Account option in the Company Names and Numbers program (P0010). From the Organization & Account menu (G09411), select Company Names and Numbers. Values are:

Blank: Enter a standard voucher (default).

1: Enter a logged voucher.

When you enter 1 in this processing option, the program adds a selected Logged option to the Supplier Ledger Inquiry form, and the program ignores the selections you make for Prepayments.

Alternatively, from the Other Voucher Entry Methods menu (G04111), select Voucher Logging Entry.

Note. This processing option functions in conjunction with the Voucher Logging processing option on the Logging tab of Voucher Entry MBF (P0400047). You must enter 1 in both Voucher Logging processing options in order for the system to process logged vouchers. If the Voucher Logging processing options for A/P Standard Voucher Entry and Voucher Entry MBF are set for logged vouchers, the system ignores the processing options on the Prepayments tab of A/P Standard Voucher Entry (P0411).

2. G/L Date

Specify whether to use the system date as the default general ledger date for a logged voucher. Values are:

Blank: Enter date manually.

1: Use the system date as the default general ledger date.

Note. If you enter 1 in this processing option, you cannot override the date, since you have designated the system date.

Prepayments

These processing options specify how the program processes prepayments. Use prepayments to pay for goods or services before you receive an invoice.

1. G/L Offset Account

Specify that you want to set up AAIs (item PCxxxx) to predefine classes of automatic offset accounts for accounts.

For example, you can assign general ledger offsets as:

Blank: Trade Accounts Payable

4110: Trade Accounts Payable

RETN: Retainage Payable

4120: Retainage Payable

OTHR: Other Accounts Payable

4230: Other Accounts Payable

PREP: Prepayment A/P Trade Account

4111: Prepayment A/P Trade Account

Enter the code for the general ledger offset account that the system uses to create prepayment pay items. You must enter a value to enable automatic creation of prepayment pay items. If you leave this processing option blank (default), the system uses the Standard Voucher Entry program.

2. G/L Distribution Account

Specify the general ledger distribution account that the system uses for creating prepayment pay items. You can use one of these formats for account numbers:

Structured account (business unit.object.subsidiary).

25-digit unstructured number.

8-digit short account ID number.

Speed code.

The first character of the account indicates the format of the account number.

You define the account format in the General Accounting Constants program (P000909).

Note. Use this processing option only if you enter a value in the General Ledger Offset Account processing option.

3. Pay Status Code

Specify the default pay status code for prepayments.

The pay status code is a UDC (00/PS) that indicates the current payment status of a voucher. Valid codes are:

P: The voucher is paid in full.

A: The voucher is approved for payment, but not yet paid. This applies to vouchers and automatic cash applications.

H: The voucher is on hold pending approval.

R: Retainage.

%: Withholding applies to the voucher.

?: Other codes. All other codes indicate reasons that payment is being withheld.

Note. The JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Accounts Payable system does not print payments for any codes other than the codes provided in this valid codes list.

Note. Use this processing option only if you enter a value in the general ledger Offset Account processing option.

4. Number of Days

Specify the number of days to add to the due date of the negative prepayment pay items.

5. Tax Area

Specify that the program indicates the Prepayment Tax form for prepayments.

You use the Prepayment Tax form to assign tax codes to negative pay items that are different from the tax codes for the corresponding positive pay items. This is necessary, for example, when tax laws treat positive pay items and negative pay items differently. Otherwise, the system automatically generates a negative pay item for each positive pay item, assigning each negative pay item the same tax area code and tax explanation code as its corresponding positive pay item.

If you specify a tax area code and tax explanation code on the Prepayment Tax form, the new codes appear on all negative pay items, overriding the original tax area codes and tax explanation codes on the positive pay items.

For example, if there are several positive pay items, each of which specify a different tax area code and tax explanation code, but you specify a particular tax area code and tax explanation code on the Prepayment Tax form, the system assigns the tax area code and tax explanation code you specify on the Prepayment Tax form to all negative pay items. Values are:

Blank: Do not display

1: Display

Note. Use this processing option only if you enter a value in the general ledger Offset Account processing option.

6. Prepayment Tax Area Code

Specify a default code that identifies a tax or geographic area that has common tax rates and tax distribution.

The system uses this code to properly calculate the tax amount. The tax rate/area must be defined to include the tax authorities (for example, state, county, city, rapid transit district, or province), and their rates. To be valid, a code must be set up in the Tax Rate/Area table (F4008).

Typically, U.S. sales and use taxes require multiple tax authorities per tax rate/area, whereas VAT requires only one tax.

Note. Use this processing option only if you enter 1 in the Tax Area processing option.

7. Prepayment Tax Explanation Code

Specify a default tax explanation code for transactions with a certain supplier.

This tax explanation code is a UDC (00/EX) that controls how a tax is assessed and distributed to the general ledger revenue and expense accounts.

Note. Use this processing option only if you enter 1 in the Tax Area processing option.

Versions

These processing options specify whether to override the default Master Business Function version.

1. Voucher Master Business Function Version

Specify a version number to override Standard Voucher Entry processing (version ZJDE0001 for application P0400047). If this processing option is left blank, the system uses ZJDE0001.

2. Journal Entry Master Business Function

Specify a version number to override Journal Entry processing (version ZJDE0001 for application P0900049). If this processing option is left blank, the system uses ZJDE0001.

3. Pay When Paid Manual Link Version

Specify a version number for the Pay When Paid Manual Link application (version ZJDE0001 for application P03B470). If this processing option is left blank, the system uses ZJDE0001.

4. Netting (P03B455) Version

Specify the version of Netting (P03B455) to use. If this processing option is left blank, the system uses ZJDE0002.

Note. Only persons responsible for system-wide setup should change this version number.

Process

These processing options restrict changes to vouchers when you use Subcontractor Ledger Inquiry.

1. Voucher Entry Mode

Specify whether the system enables changes to vouchers after you select them from the Supplier Ledger Inquiry form. Values are:

Blank: Allow changes

1: Do not allow changes

The system restricts you to inquiries of existing vouchers that you select from the Supplier Ledger Inquiry form.

2. Supplier Self Service Mode

Specify the activation of the Supplier Self-Service function for use in Java/HTML.

The Self-Service function enables suppliers to view their own vouchers and payments. Values are:

Blank: Do not activate

1: Activate

Edits

This processing option defines whether the Fixed Asset ID is required when entering a voucher.

1. Fixed Asset ID

Specify whether to require an Asset ID if an account is in the AAI asset account range. Values are:

Blank: Do not require

1: Require

Pay When Paid

1. Pay When Paid Voucher

Specify whether to enter a Pay When Paid Voucher. Values are:

Blank: Enter a standard voucher (default).

1: Enter a Pay When Paid Voucher.

When you enter 1 in this processing option, the program flags the voucher as a Pay When Paid Voucher.

Note. This processing option functions in conjunction with the Pay When Paid Pay Status Code processing option on the Defaults tab of Voucher Entry MBF (P0400047). You must enter the pay status to be associated with Pay When Paid Vouchers.

Click to jump to parent topicProcessing Retainage

This section provides an overview of retainage and discusses how to:

Click to jump to top of pageClick to jump to parent topicUnderstanding Retainage

You can withhold a portion of the gross payment as retainage. Retainage is the percentage of a committed amount that is held until a specified date. For example, you pay the retained amount after the completion of the contract, service, or receipt of all items on an order. If you create a voucher for 100 with retainage of 10 percent, the actual payment is 90, with 10 held as retainage. You release retainage by creating progress payments for the amount that you want to release.

Note. You cannot release retainage and progress payment at the same time.

Note. The terms voucher and progress payment have the same meaning in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Subcontract Management system and the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Procurement system.

You can create a voucher with retainage that is applied to the entire voucher, or you can apply retainage by line item of the voucher.

Use the tax with retainage processing option to defer tax on retainage. If you set the processing option for tax with retainage to on and you use a tax type of C or V, the system calculates amounts differently. It subtracts retainage from the original taxable amount and recalculates new amounts.

You release retainage by entering a payment voucher for the amount that you want to release. Retainage is also called a holdback.

A partial release of retainage indicates that there is still an unpaid amount of retainage. A final release of retainage indicates that no retainage remains to be paid. You can release retainage for individual vouchers or for groups of vouchers.
