Create iRAPT Billing Files

Use this screen to create batch files that you can submit to the iRAPT via FTP. A bill must have a Status of S (Select), indicating that it has been approved, before you can include it in an iRAPT file.

The iRAPT file does not handle ceilings, and retainage is prorated and included within the bill.

Note: If you choose to use a word processing program (for example, Microsoft Word, WordPerfect, Microsoft WordPad, Microsoft Write, etc.) to create your FTP files, you must cut/copy the text out of the word processor program and paste it into Microsoft Notepad, or another ASCII text editor, before sending the data to iRAPT. This converts the text to text-only format and removes control characters that contain formatting information.
Warning: If you have project total ceilings enforced on a project to be included in the file, the over ceiling rows cause the file to be rejected.

Execute this screen after calculating bills (standard or progress payment) or entering bills (project product bills). All bills must have a status of Selected to be included within the file. You must execute this screen before posting the bills because the primary file source is the billing edit tables.
