Payment applications - Release Notes

 Below are the notable changes to the project's Payment applications tool (also known as the Progress Billings tool in some accounts).

Recent Changes

Beta  Prefill Owner Payment application Retention Amounts on Main Contract Payment Applications (16/07/2024)

For users participating in the Owner Payment application Beta program, you can now automatically populate retention amounts from subcontractor payment applications. The owner payment application prefill feature reduces manual entry and ensures accurate entry of held and released retention amounts. To learn more, see How does Procore automatically complete amounts on an owner payment application? (Beta) and Create Main Contract Payment Applications (Beta).

Updated Export > PDF with Attachments Option for Subcontractor Payment applications (24/05/2024)

Procore has updated the Export > PDF with Attachments menu option to download the compiled PDF file with attachments directly to your computer. Before the update, Procore send the PDF to you by email when the payment application and attachments were ready. To learn more, see Export a Subcontractor Payment application.

IMPROVED ROW GROUPS ON OWNER INVOICE SCHEDULE OF VALUES (24/05/2024)

When you create a new owner payment application, the row groups on the new payment application's Bill of Quantities now mirror the user's most recent groupings from the previous payment application. This consistency makes data entry easier, especially when users create new payment applications for progress payments. To learn how to create a payment application, see Create Main Contract Payment Applications

Customise OWNER INVOICE NUMBERING System ON MODERNISED EXPERIENCE (20/05/2024)

For users on the modernised owner payment application experience, Procore has updated its payment application numbering system. Users can now create a customised numbering scheme that automatically increments to the next number in the sequence when creating future payment applications. To learn more, see Can I customise the numbering system for financial objects in Procore?

Budget Changes on Owner Payment applications (13/05/2024)

Budget Changes is now available on owner payment applications. The highly-anticipated feature allows clients to directly include approved budget changes in main contract payment applications, improving transparency with the use of contingency funds. Users can simplify their billing process and reduce the need for separate Main Contract Variations. This feature is only available for clients that are opted into the Modernised Owner Payment application Experience and are migrated to the new Budget Changes tool. To learn more, see About Budget Changes on Main Contract Payment Applications.

improved navigation for bill of quantities (19/04/2024)

When modifying a cell in the Bill of Quantities table, users can now input content and easily move to the next cell after completing updates. 

Main Contract Payment Applications added to Workflows Open Beta (13/03/2024)

Main Contract Payment Applications has been added to the list of tools supported by the self-serve workflows open beta. See Best Practices for Creating an Owner Payment application Workflow.

FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT: NEW WARNING BANNER ON SUBCONTRACTOR INVOICES WHEN RETENTION IS RELEASED (24/04/2023)

Subcontractor payment applications have a new warning banner that will appear when retention is released. The banner will appear from the Bill of Quantities (BOQ) card once retention amount is entered and released. See Set or Release Retention on a Subcontractor Payment application.

FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT: Extended The Legacy Subcontractor Payment application Experience Date (26/01/2023) 

The option to switch between the beta and legacy subcontractor payment application experience has been extended to September 2023. The previously announced end date for using the legacy experience was February 2023. Now, in September 2023, the ability to exit the beta experience will be removed and the legacy experience will no longer be available in Procore.
