Initiation of payment application by the project manager
Subcontractor view and activities
Actions of the project manager after confirmation by subcontractor
1. Initiation of payment applications by the project manager
The payment application process at Bauwise looks like this:
The first payment application in each contract must always be drawn up by the project manager himself. To do this, you need to go to the budget view in the project and open the corresponding subcontract where you want to prepare the payment application:
2. Then you need to open the "Payment applications" module (Explanations and setting information for the view of the payment application list can be found here: https://bauwise.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/KB/pages/5603489/ATV+lepingu+vaade#4.-Aktid)
3. Next press the button "Create payment application"
4. The payment application view opens (description and explanations of the payment application view can be found here: https://bauwise.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/BM/pages/13342448/Copy+of+Copy+of+Akti+vaade)
5. The project manager can either fill out the contents of the payment application in advance or send it to the subcontractor in an unfilled form. In this example, we fill out the payment application ourselves. To send out the payment application, you need to press the button "Send payment application to subcontractor".
6. In the window that opens next, you need to add the subcontractor's contact information:
It is also possible to send the payment application as a one-time link (by checking the box "Send a link to the user"), but in this case you have to prepare and send the payment application yourself each time. In this case, the subcontractor does not have the opportunity to submit the payment application himself.
7. By entering the subcontractor's e-mail address, the system checks if such a person is already registered. If not, the person must be registered by pressing the "Add new email" button:
In the next view, fill in the contact information and press "Save and continue":
Now the user has been added and this information is reflected in the contact selection view. Press the "Done" button to continue:
8. Bauwise generates an automatic letter, the content of which can be corrected in the opening view. By pressing the "Send email" button, the Bauwise login details and a notification about the preparation of the document will be sent to the added contact.
2. Subcontractor view and activities
The subcontractor receives the user credentials from e-mail: no-replay@bauwise.com:
2. When logging into the system, a view opens where the subcontractor must press the "My payment applications" button:
3. Now he has the option to "Create a new payment application" and "Open payment application" at Payment application number 01. If the old payment application is unconfirmed, a new payment application cannot be created.
4. Therefore, only Payment application 01 can be opened at the moment:
5. Since the document was completed in advance by the project manager, the subcontractor's completed form looks orange. The contractor has the opportunity to make his own amendment by overwriting these numbers, or to add a completely new change order to the payment application (by pressing the "Add change order line" button). You can also add comments.
The subcontractor never sees work codes, he only sees the names!
6. When the Subcontractor has reviewed the payment application, made the desired corrections, he presses the "Confirm payment application" button. After confirmation, the Project Manager receives a notification that the Subcontractor has confirmed the payment application.
3. Project Manager's actions after subcontractor's confirmation
In the project manager's view, all changes made by the subcontractor are marked in color, comments are also visible. The added change order line is red:
2. If the project manager accepts the change order, he has to select a work code for this change order, where this cost goes:
3. If the other changes are also suitable, the Project Manager presses the button "Confirm the payment application" and the procedure of the payment application is finished. An automatic email about this is sent to the subcontractor along with a PDF of the payment application. If desired, it is possible to digitally sign the invoice in the Bauwise environment.
4. If the content of the payment application is not suitable, the Project Manager presses the button "Change the payment application" and the whole process starts over. The payment application is changed until an agreement is reached.
The Subcontractor can now start the procedure of the next payment application himself, since he has the user credentials. By sending only a link to the payment application, this is not possible!
All additional work added during the payment application process is now visible in the subcontractor's contract view, and the costs are visible in the budget:
