Invoicing - part completion of construction contracts

Question asked by Daniel Traynor 10 years ago

My client has an ongoing construction contract and is required to submit an invoice based on the certified point of completion, i.e. if 10% = £25k, £20% = £50k less £25k already invoiced.

The end client requires this all in one invoice and my client has been duplicating the revenue, so invoice 1 = £25k, invoice 2 = invoice 1 + new works @ £25k, invoice 3 = Invoice 1&2 @ £50k + new works at £X.

Does anyone have a better way of doing this? Any help appreciated.

Honestly, tell the contractor to stop being a pain in the rear. It still shocks me how contractors continue to call the shots, right down to their QS's amending invoices without telling them.

The only way I can think to do it off the top of my head would be to enter a negative sale in the second line to account for what's already been invoiced. It will be a manual process though, no way of pulling the figs in automatically.
