Module Detail

Add-on

Progress Payments

Run the whole progress-payment cycle for contracting work in one place. The contract's deduction rules are defined once in a profile, each period's work is entered line by line, price escalation is computed from published indices, and the bridge from the gross amount down to the net payable builds itself. A subcontractor's progress payment is linked back-to-back to the main contract payment, so the period margin is visible immediately. An approved progress payment becomes a journal voucher in one click, and the dashboard gives you the portfolio, the approval queue and a 13-week cash projection. It is an add-on module with a flat price, independent of user count.

Key capabilities

Contract Progress Profiles

Retention, advance offset, withholding tax, stamp duty, VAT withholding and payment terms are defined once per contract, and every new progress payment inherits those rates. Work increase and decrease limits and the escalation method live in the same profile, so rates never drift between payments on the same job.

Amount Bridge

Previous payments are subtracted from the cumulative approved work, escalation and additional work are added, and the gross amount appears. Advance offset, withholding tax, stamp duty, additional performance bond, penalties and other deductions come off in order to reveal the net payable. VAT is calculated on the gross, withheld VAT is separated, and the expected cash is shown on its own line.

Index-Based Price Escalation

You enter published indices month by month; the weighted formula on the contract profile (a fixed coefficient plus component weights) computes the period's escalation and shows the breakdown per component. If any component's index is missing, no amount is written and the missing month is named — the system never produces a quietly wrong figure.

Back-to-Back Subcontractors

The payment due to a subcontractor is linked to the main contract payment it corresponds to. The Subcontractors tab shows the total of linked payments and the period margin at a glance, so you know what a job earns before the period closes.

Lifecycle and Ledger Posting

Draft, in review, approved, approved with deductions, invoiced and collected are tracked with timestamps. An approved payment turns into an accounting voucher in one click: the receivable, revenue, VAT, withholding, retention, advance and tax legs come from your account mappings and are previewed with a balance check before the voucher is written.

Dashboard and Cash Projection

Expected collections, expected payments and the net position are summarised in the header. A 13-week cash projection is built from payment terms; overdue payments are gathered into the first week and anything beyond the horizon is listed separately.
