How to generate Date(Period) Specific - Paid to Date

Hi, Does anyone have a generic inquiry I can use to calculate Paid to Date (with ability to view a range of time)?I have been attempting to calculate Paid to Date for our Billings Cost Recap.  I can use the Invoices and memos to calculate a “real time” paid to date (doc amount - Balance = Amount Paid to Invoice). To get this in a date specific manor, I am attempting to use ARRegister & ARAdjust to be able to link the payment amounts to specific projects BY PERIOD.  I have not been successful and would appreciate guidance to producing a paid to date that can be used for historical periods. The amounts must be Project specific.  *I am surprised that Paid To Date is NOT an “out of box” report for the Construction edition. * Please reach out with any questions if you need more information to advise.

Subaccount structure - Construction

Anyone have ideas on a good subaccount structure for Construction - Electrical subcontractor. I see that branch, service type (revenue) and dept (expense) are typically used in Acumatica especially in the training guides. However, with a smalls subcontractor department really aren’t used. Most costs are linked to a particular job/project and expenses are simply company-wide overhead. Only one type of segment makes sense--service type. Anyone have other suggestions that I can consider? (Thank you in advance!!)

Progress Billing based on units

Does anyone have a process that will produce a progress billing based on units in place instead of % complete?The concept is similar, but the SOV is based on Units and Unit Cost to calculate the amount.  Also, need to show Units Previously Billed, Units Billed this Period, Total Units Billed.  Each of those columns would then be multiplied by the Unit Price to calculate, Previous Amount, Amount this Period & Total Amount.

How to create combined lien waivers?

Hello,Our client constructs large buildings and often pays a vendor one large check including bills related to several projects, and sometimes Bills have a PO and some bills that don’t (meaning some lien waivers are automatic and some have been manually added to the bill). I’m not able to figure out how to have one lien waiver created/printed for each project, with totals paid for that project.  Instead, we are getting one lien waiver per BILL and that can mean 70+ lien waivers accompanying one check even when the project is the same on every bill.Does anyone have advice or a solution?  Have I missed the screen where I can choose the generation level for lien waivers (one per bill, one per check, one per project per check, etc.)?Thank you!Laura

What setting adds Branch to the Project screen, Billing & Allocation Settins area of Summary tab?

Greetings,One of our customer’s tenants has Branch field available in Projects and Project Templates screens. The second tenant does not.  Enable/Disable screens match in the Projects area and most other areas. Project Preferences isn’t an  exact match but also has no setting that I could identify as project+branch-related. We’d like Branch to appear on projects in all tenants.  What am I missing?  Thank you!Laura

How to allocate project transactions multiple time?

I have a client with the following requirement:When they process a proforma invoice there can be a delay of 2 to 3 weeks before the customer agrees on what they are going to accept on the bill, and they can process the AR bill, which may be over a period end. They want to be able to record a type of WIP entry, debit WIP and credit Accrued Revenue, for the value of the Proforma invoice so that the revenue is recognised in the period in which the proforma invoice is raised.I have looked at how this could be achieved and cannot see how to achieve this. The Allocation Rules essentially cover the posting of WIP when project transactions are created and are then reversed when the when the AR bill is generated/released.I tried to create two tasks:On one task, I create an allocation rule to allocate Cost to WIP.On the second task, I created an allocation rule to allocate WIP to Unbilled/Accrued Revenue, and Billing Rule to select from Unbilled Revenue and post to Revenue.But it seems that when
