Milestones and payments

Deliverables, reviews and the payment schedule

The portal tracks each deliverable from plan to acceptance, and each payment from the schedule to a paid invoice.

Deliverables

Each deliverable and how it is checked

Each deliverable states what it covers, the week it is due and the criteria your team checks it against.

  • When a deliverable is waiting for your review, it shows the date that review is due.
Two deliverables in the plan, one accepted and one waiting for the client's review, each with its due week, date and acceptance criteria.

Statuses

From planned to accepted

A deliverable moves from planned to in progress, then waits for your review until your team accepts it.

Payments

What triggers each payment

The payment schedule lists every payment with its planned date, amount, status and trigger. A payment can fall due when the contract is signed, when a deliverable is accepted or on a set date.

  • Totals show the whole schedule, the amount invoiced and the amount paid.
Totals for the schedule, the amount invoiced and the amount paid, above five payments, one due when the contract is signed, three on accepted deliverables and a final one.

Invoices

Invoice copies with their purchase orders

Each invoice appears once it is sent, and your team can open a PDF copy and see its purchase order, due date and status.

Two invoices, each with its issue and due dates, purchase order, amount, a paid status and a PDF.

Questions

Can we pay an invoice in the portal?

No. We email each invoice to your accounts payable against your purchase order, and you pay it outside the portal.

Can my team accept a deliverable in the portal?

No. Your team sends its review to our team, and the plan shows the new status.

Can our accounts payable staff open the portal?

Yes, if your company asks us to give them access.
