Description: How to Use Invoice Filters.

 

This feature allows for using mixed-style billings on a single project without the need of creating a roll-up project or an invoice group. A filter is a user-definable code that can be placed on the second-level nodes (phases) within a project WBS. Invoice section designs (usually the Labor section) can limit the phases to include by this filter. An example of their use might be a phased fixed fee plus additional services. In this example, the letter F would be placed on all phases that are Fixed Fee, and the letter H for all phases that are Hourly.

 

Step 1 - To place invoice filters on the phases, right click on the project name in Project Explorer (within the Projects applet). Nest, choose Invoice Filters from the right-click menu.
