Understanding the Price Review Process

After you close a weigh tag, the system creates a purchase order and receipt. You must review the harvest receipts and, if applicable, add adjustments to the receipts. This graphic illustrates the price review process:

Typically, you conduct an internal price review before you issue interim payments to payees. Internal price reviews are usually performed by a manager, such as the contract manager or area manager. The manager reviews the harvest receipts, weigh tags, and quality results. Based on the quality results, the manager might waive a penalty or bonus or add another type of adjustment to increase or decrease the amount of the receipt.

After entering adjustments, the manager marks the receipt as reviewed. Another manager may have responsibility for approving the receipt before a voucher is generated and an interim payment issued.
