In construction payment management, subcontractor invoices go beyond simple payments—they require thorough verification to ensure compliance and accuracy. Applications for Payment undergo multiple layers of review, from Lien Officers to Compliance Officers to Project Accountants.
With GCPay’s Approval Groups, managing these complex workflows has never been easier:
Custom Workflows: Design and enforce approval routes tailored to your project’s unique requirements down to each individual subcontract.
Flexible Grouping:Organize subcontracts in up to 26 approval groups per project, each with its own set of approvers.
Collaborative Approvals: Combine groups within a project to efficiently distribute approval responsibilities among your team members.
Here's an example of approval groups from the Project Companies tab:
Here's an example of where approval groups are established in the Project Settings tab:
Exciting Updates Are Coming! We’re expanding the functionality of Approval Groups to give your team even more flexibility:
Assign sub-specific reviewers for more targeted approval and flexibility.
Utilize "or" logicto build approval workflows that require just one reviewer within the broader group to advance pay application approval.
If you have any questions about advanced approval routing, reach out to your dedicated account manager today.
Custom Project Settings for Subcontractor Management
Project Settings are created within GCPay to allow general contractors to customize settings for each project. Application for payment (AFP) details such as estimated working hours and retainage information can be customized on a per-project basis depending on owner requirements or even subcontractor preferences.
Electronic payment and Waiver Exchange for AFPs can be elected at the project level as well, offering variability in payment methods for general contractors to choose which method best suits their needs.
Other important tracking information such as stored materials, tier vendors, and participation tracking (i.e. minority-owned and disadvantaged reporting) can also be customized for each project. This allows owners as well as general contractors the ability to manage each project differently. Each scenario guarantees a quick, easy method to track and report so time savings are still achieved, regardless of management needs.
Changes to project settings occur throughout the year, so don’t forget to go to Client Central to get software feature release notes and the latest industry news!
