Assessing Application for Payment

An assessor can start the assessment only after the information is submitted by the contractor. The assessment is expected to be performed on the date specified in the Assessment as at Date field of the Application for Payment (tpppc6630m000) session.
However, the assessment can also be performed earlier or later than this date. The date on which the actual assessment is performed, is maintained in the Assessment Date field of the AFP.
Note: When the Assessment Date is specified for an AFP, the assessment is considered as completed. During the assessment, the status of the AFP is Submitted.
An assessor must verify if the applied quantities and amounts submitted by the contractor are correct. On completing the assessment, the assessor can update the assessed values in these fields of the AFP lines.
  • Applied Progress
  • Applied Quantity
  • Applied Amount

For each applied value, an assessed value is updated (periodic and cumulative).

After an Application for Payment (AFP) is assessed, the amount claimed by the contractor and the amount certified by the assessor can differ. The reason for the difference can be described in the Reason for Payless field in the Application for Payment (tpppc6630m000) session.
