With Costpoint's "pay when paid" functionality, you can hold payments for a vendor until you have received payments from your customer. Use the setup features for Costpoint Accounts Payable and the setup features in the Projects folder to enter one or more accounts payable vouchers with the status of pay when paid. These vouchers will not be released for payment until your company has billed and posted the appropriate cash receipt from your customer.
If you are using the pay when paid voucher, use this screen to accumulate information from voucher history, billing history, and A/R history. Executing this process will update the pay when paid vouchers and ensure that the most accurate information is evaluated when attempting to select pay when paid vouchers for payment. You can select vouchers for payment via the Select Vouchers screen, Edit Payment Status by Account screen, or Edit Payment Status by Vendor screen.
If your company uses the pay-when-paid function, you must run this update as part of your normal payment process. After posting vouchers, but before selecting vouchers for payment, run this process to allow any eligible pay-when-paid items to be selected for payment. In order to obtain the most accurate data, we suggest that you refrain from running this function when new vouchers, bills (via the Projects folder), or new cash receipts are being posted.
