Understanding 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 activated, 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 activated, 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 that 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.
