Weekly payment run

Open this screen in Saral/projects/payment-run

Every subcontractor and consultant on every project you can see, in one list: contract sum, final account, approved variations, certified, invoiced and paid to date, the balance to pay with its final date for payment, and what does not add up — grouped by the week of that final date, which is the payment run it belongs to. Read-only: it never pays. Approving and paying is Accounts → Payment Runs.

You enter

Nothing here — the run is built from the registers and the ledger. Pick a week or a view to narrow it.

Saral fills in

Certified to date from the confirmed subcontract months and issued notices; invoiced and paid from Xero every time
The balance — certified less paid, or what Xero shows owing where no certificate is on record, marked (Xero)
The final date from the package's own payment terms on the earliest certificate not yet paid, and the week it falls in
The checks: an invoice cited on a certificate that Xero has never seen, paid over the certificate, no certificate

It produces

The tracker as Excel with live formulas and the same as a PDF on letterhead — they cannot disagree
The list a payment run is approved from on Payment Runs

What the figures mean

Figures exclude VAT. Paid counts cash, CIS withheld and credits applied. Certified comes from Subcontracts → Applications; where no certificate is on record the balance is Xero's amount due and says so.

A subcontractor missing

A subcontractor appears once nominated on the project's Payment schedule. Consultants appear the same way through their package.
