Specified Billing and Advance Billing Overview for Subcontractors

Specified Billing

A Main Contractor can use the Specified Billing setting to enter a Payment Application on behalf of a Subcontractor. As a Subcontractor, you approve and sign the payment application.

Note: If the project includes Specified Billing, you cannot enter or modify payment application details.

Advanced Billing

If a subcontract includes Advance Billing, you may bill for Sub-Tier costs on in your Billing Workflow.

Note: You can submit a payment application for a Sub-Tier even if the Sub-Tier does not submit a payment application or submits a late payment application.

An amount billed on a component total line can be greater than the self-performed line.
The total amount billed cannot exceed a component's work breakdown amount. The Balance to Finish will be negative on the self-performed line.
Sub-Tier amount remain zero until the Sub-Tier submits a payment application or the Subcontractor enters an amount greater than the self-performed total.
Approved Sub-Tier amounts appear in your Billing Workflow for reference.
Note: Not sure whether your project uses billing? See Advance Billing for Prime Subcontractors for more information on the project setting.
