If you have a Project with a Billing Method set at Contingency and the payment due option of "Bill at Project Closing", but you do not see it as an option when invoicing please review the following.
- Go to the Project.
- Click the Add Time button.
- Change the Entry Type to Case Closing Settlement.
- Enter required information, including the Full Settlement Amount (the system will calculate the final amount based on the Contingency Rate Percentage entered in for the Project).
- Save the Entry
- On the Project, change the Project Status from "Open" to "Closed"
- Go to Invoicing in your Navigation bar.
- Click the Create Invoice Button.
- Enter the desired dates.
- Change the Payment Due Upon filter to Bill at Project Closing. (This filter is on the left under the Batch Description box).
- Check the box for the desired Project.
- Click the Save button.
Note: The calculated Contingency Fee will be reflected on this invoice. Time Entries will be non-billable and any Expenses will be included as billable.
Case Closing Settlements
Closing Statements are limited to $10,000,000.00. If the Settlement is over $10,000,000.00 we have two options for you to complete this process.
- Create multiple Closing Statements to equal the total Settlement. For example, if your settlement is $25,000,000.00 there would be 3 closing statements. Two for $10,000,000.00 and one for $5,000,000.00. The system will use the set contingency amount to calculate the invoice totals.
- Create a Flat Fee Invoice for the contingency amount. For example, the settlement is $25,000,000.00 and the contingency percentage is 25%. This means the Flat Fee Invoice should be for $6,250,000.00, there are many options to reflect the contingency formula on the invoice ($25,000,000.00 x 25% = $6,250,000).
