Create a Funding Payment application

Objective

To create a funding payment application.

Background

Things to Consider

• Required User Permissions:
  • To create a payment application, 'Admin' level permissions on the project's Funding tool.
  • To view the Detail tab on a payment application, 'Read Only' or 'Standard' level permissions on the project's Funding tool with the 'View Funding Payment application Detail' granular permission enabled on your permission template.

     Note

    If you do NOT have 'Admin' level permissions on the project's Funding tool and want to view some or all of the fundings, see View Fundings.
• Additional Information:
  • When you enter a value for a payment application that is larger than the scheduled value, the payment application will be highlighted in red.
  • You can only edit the billed amounts on the most recent payment application.
  • To learn how amounts are automatically completed by Procore on funding payment applications, see How does Procore automatically fill in amounts on an upstream payment application?

Prerequisites

• Create Fundings
• Approve a Funding
• You must create a billing period. See Create Automatic Billing Periods or Create Manual Billing Periods.

Steps

1. Navigate to the project's Funding tool.
2. Locate the funding to work with. Then click its Number link.
3. Click Create Payment application.

   Note

   If a payment application has already been created for the current billing period, click the Payment applications tab. Then click the Edit button to open it.
4. In the 'New Payment application (Payment Application)' page, do the following:
   • Commitment Billing Period
     Select the current billing period from the drop-down list. If there is no billing period in this list, follow the steps in Create Automatic Billing Periods or Create Manual Billing Periods.
   • Payment application #
     Enter a unique, alphanumeric identification number for the payment application. Procore automatically numbers payment applications in ascending numerical order, starting with one (1). The number entered in this field does NOT affect Procore's default payment application numbering scheme.
   • Period Start
     Select a start date for the payment application. Procore automatically populates this field with the current billing period's start date.
   • Period End
     Select an end date for the payment application. Procore automatically populates this field with the current billing period's end date.
   • Billing Date
     Select the billing date for the payment application.
   • Status
     Select a status for the funding payment application. See What are the default statuses for Procore payment applications?
   • Percent Complete
     Shows the percentage of work completed.
   • Attachments
     A PDF of the payment application and any related payment application PDFs from the project's Direct Costs tool are combined into a single PDF and attached here.
5. Click Create.

   Note

   You will be prompted to confirm that you want your new payment application to pre-populate with the following information:

   • Amounts on the 'Work Completed' and 'Materials Presently Stored' columns of 'Approved' and 'Pending Approval' subcontractor payment applications.
   • Amounts for 'Invoices' created in the project's Direct Costs tool when the 'Received Date' on that direct cost falls within the billing period.
   • Amounts from Commitment Variations (CVs) that have amounts in Funding Variations (FCOs).
6. In the 'Do you want to pre-fill the funding payment application?' message, you have these options:
   • Yes. Click this button to confirm that you want the payment application to pre-populate the payment application with the amounts billed from the fields listed in the message.
   • No Thanks. If you want to manually complete the payment application
   • Cancel. Click this button to cancel payment application creation.
7. Scroll down the page to view a preview of the payment application form under "Summary Preview." To learn how the 'Current Amount Due' amount is calculated, see How does Procore calculate a payment application's 'Current Payment Due' amount?
