Payment Application Control Log

As a Main Contractor, you can use the Payment Application Control Log (PACL) to view the status and history of all approved versions of a Payment Application. The PACL provides a summary of the Payment Application. It includes options to see a log of each action and a timeline of submissions and approvals. It also retains a history of payment applications that were rejected and the period was either auto or manually closed. In addition, the log also tracks if a Subcontractor has declined to participate in a period along with the reason for declining.

Tips

Subcontractors do not have access to the PACL for a subcontract with a Main Contractor. However, Prime Subcontractors with Sub-Tier Subcontractors or Suppliers can see the PACL for Sub-Tier subcontracts.
The PACL is very useful for clients using parallel or serial approval. It provides an easy way to see the sequence of approvals or rejections and any associated comments.

See Parallel Approval and Serial Approval.

Choose the Signatory Approvals tickbox to see the approvals and rejections. When expanded, the PACL shows the amounts, Signers, Authorisers and dates the Payment Application was signed and authorised.
Choose the Payment Application Markup Details to see comments and changes made to rejected Payment Applications.
Note: The Payment Application Markup Details tickbox is only available after a Payment Application has been rejected at least once.
