Line items tab

The Line items tab for a payment form shows the line items that are paid with the payment form. With any invoice, it is important to pay on the correct line items of your contract that you are being invoiced for. If for some reason you or your team receive an invoice that has line items on it that are not on the contract, you must verify that these charges are in fact correct. You will then need to determine if your company's policy on change orders should be followed.

Details

Provides detailed information for the line items added to the payment form.

This submission

The total net amount and quantity allocated for this payment form. When you enter the Net amount, the Quantity, Tax, and Retention are automatically calculated. The tax column calculates a proportional estimate of the line item taxes based on the taxes received in the purchase order response or manually uploaded via a Logic Apps file, and whether the tax type should calculate on net price or gross amount. These taxes are shown as a total and hovering over the information icon shows the individual taxes. When the payment form is for retention release, you can enter the value in the Retention release column. See Payment form submittal for information about submitting payment forms.

Pending submissions The total amount and quantity allocated to this line for pending payment forms.

Remaining Calculates the total quantity, amount, and retention release remaining for this line in the payment form.
