What breaks

Lesson 151 of 198 · 2 min

"This cost will not bill." Check in this order. One. Is the project associated with a contract line? Two. Is the SPECIFIC TASK associated — or is it excluded? Three. Is the contract approved and active on the transaction date? Four. Is there a bill plan on that contract line? Five. Has a hard limit been reached? Six. Is the cost marked billable — or was it adjusted to non-billable? Then eight cases. One. "The invoice run produced nothing." Contract not approved, or no project association. Two. "Half the project is billing and half is not." Task-level association. Working exactly as designed, and usually correctly. Three. "Billing stopped mid-month." Hard limit reached. Working as configured — somebody needs to raise a change order, which is a commercial action rather than a support ticket. Four. "Revenue and invoice amounts do not match, and Finance is alarmed." THEY ARE NOT MEANT TO.
