Set Up HC/Client Progress Billings on a Contract

If you are planning to generate progress billings to send to a project's HC or a client for the work your team performs, you use the controls in this section to set up the HC/Client progress claim feature for a client contract. 

1. Scroll to the 'HC/Client Progress Billings' section. 
2. Choose to enable or disable the following options:
   
   • Enable HC/Client Progress Billings. To turn the HC/client progress billings feature ON for this contract, place a checkmark in this box. ON is the default setting. To turn this feature OFF, remove the checkmark. 
   • Enable Completed Work Retention. To turn the completed work retention feature on, place a checkmark in this box. ON is the default setting. To turn this feature OFF, remove the checkmark. 
   • Enable Stored Material Retention. To turn the stored material retention feature on, place a checkmark in this box. ON is the default setting. To turn this feature OFF, remove the checkmark. 
   • Level of Detail to Display Variations. This setting determines how Procore displays variations in the 'Detail' tab of the client contract. Your options include:
     • Line items in each Potential Variation (PV). This is the default setting. This setting lists all of the line items for all PVs related to the client contract. 
     • Client Contract Variation (CCV). This selection lists only the CCVs related to the client contract. 
     • Potential Variation (PV). This selection lists only the PVs related to the client contract. 
   • Approve Subcontractor Progress Billings when HC/Client Approves HC/Client Progress Billing. Place a checkmark in this box so that once a head contractor or client approves the HC/Client progress claim, the subcontractor progress claim is also approved. This function is only enabled when you choose to pre-fill your HC/Client progress claims with data from your project's subcontractor progress claims. To learn more about pre-filling progress claims, see Create a HC/Client Progress Claim for a Client Contract.
   • Show Cost Code on PDF. Place a checkmark in this box to show cost codes on the PDF. There is no cost code column in the Configurable PDF tab, but cost codes will show in headers if grouped by cost code.

If these are the only settings you want to change, click Save. Otherwise, continue with the next step.

Set the Accounting Method on a Client Contract

1. Scroll to the 'Schedule of Values' section.
2. Choose one of these options:
   
   • Amount Based
     Choose this method to enter a lump sum amount for a line item on a Schedule of Values (SOV). Amount Based is Procore's default setting for contracts.
   • Unit/Quantity Based
     Choose this method when ordering materials in quantity. With this method, users enter a quantity and unit price for the line item on your SOV and Procore automatically calculates the total for the line item for you.

After you select the option that you want to use, click Save.
